Follow Up WWIG July Meeting

Thank you to everyone who attended the meeting of The WWIG yesterday evening, especially Janet Rosseter and Ben Stern who gave presentations, to those who submitted or brought images to share and to all who participated in the great give and take discussions we had.

I need to apologize to Sue Retzlaff. Even though she wasn't able to attend the meeting because she was scheduled to be in Chicago, she submitted some very good images for the Digital Challenge. Unfortunately, I lost one of them-- a particularly wonderful job of retouching of the gentleman with the missing teeth. I'll ask Sue to re-send and post the image on this blog.

Here is the information that Janet handed out:
Photo Workshop Recommendations
On-line resources
There will be no meeting in August. The next meeting will be on September 7, 2011. The Topic of the Month for the September meeting will be a photograph having deep personal significance (for the photographer, obviously). It is realized that some members may not wish to reveal personal feelings or issues so there is an optional 2nd choice: Food, which can be either a still life of food or a more broad interpretation of anything having to do with food, such as people eating,a vegetable garden, scenes from a farmer's market, etc.
The final day to submit prints to John Zoerb for the La Crosse Public Library Gallery is July 31st.
Once again, there were so many wonderful pictures on display last evening that I can't limit the header of the WWIG Blog to just one image. There will be 2 or perhaps more.
