Photo Review and Critique

This workshop is all about YOU getting feedback on YOUR photographs.  You may ask for feedback on aesthetics, technical issues, subject matter, whatever, or you may just want feedback on camera settings or editing techniques you need to use to achieve your vision.

It is Part Educational, Part Social

This is a low-pressure environment to give you feedback that helps you improve your photography.  We start out by having pizza and drinks (or other food which is supplied as part of the class) and say "Hi" to each other for 20 or 30 minutes.  Then (after we wash our hands), we look at your prints or view your images on a large HDTV screen.  The pace is unhurried, and the feedback is friendly and direct.  You will be meeting with the same people during the entire 3 month period, and you can continue to remain in the same group an additional 3 months at a time for as long as you want.

What Should You Bring

You bring images, either as prints or as JPEG files to be displayed on a large monitor.  You should bring between 3 and 12 images for review at each session. They can be old favorites, or pictures you just took.  You can also bring images by other photographers that inspire you, and you can tell the group what it is about the image or photographer that inspires you.

Anything Else?

We can also talk about camera gear.  I will be happy to explain your camera settings to you, or show the group various cameras or accessories and how to use them.  I can also explain how to use certain features in Photoshop or Lightroom.  If it is photography or camera-related, it is a topic that anyone can bring up.
