2nd & 4th Thursdays — Time:
2.00-3.30pm
Location: Victoria Hall — First
session: 22 September 2011
The aim of this group is to help those new to digital photography to organise,
email, enhance, and print their digital photographs. Help will also be available
to get the most out of your digital camera and how to avoid the most common mistakes
when taking photographs. No prior knowledge will be assumed. Topics covered will
include: taking better photos, getting photos into the computer, organising photos
and emailing them, cropping and making simple enhancements (e.g. lighten/darken,
adjust colour) and printing. We will investigate the use of free software, such
as Picassa and Gimp as well as the use of Adobe Photoshop Elements. Members’
photos will be used whenever possible. It is hoped to continue to exhibit the
results of the members’ efforts during the year, for the interest of other
U3A members.
