Hello Camera Club,

Our next meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 24 at 10:00 A.M. in the
Y Board Room.  We'll review and discuss photos taken in Manhattan/Union
Square.  We'll also pick a commonly encountered photo problem and have a
group discussion on how to solve the problem.

In preparation for that meeting please make sure to send your eight or
fewer Union Square images, by e-mail, to Bill Balch by close of
business, Friday, June 20th.

Come to this meeting whether or not you submit images.  You'll enjoy
seeing and discussing them. 

If you are contributing photos for the Bronx Zoo exhibit, please send me
the titles ASAP and make sure you deliver the prints to the Senior
Center by June 27 P.M.

There will be no meeting in July since we are meeting twice in June this
year.

Our August meeting will be held on Tuesday, August 12 at the usual time
and place.  The main topic will be "How to prepare and print a book of
photographs".  Some of us have printed books, using online services, for
gifts, or just to keep a visual record of our photos - beyond computer
or CD/DVD storage.  Mike Guthman, who is very experienced doing this,
will lead the discussion.  Bernie Perry will tell us about his
experience renting photographic equipment for an African safari.  There
are times when we might need/want some special gear that is very
expensive and only needed for short durations.  Time permitting, we'll
have a discussion on solving a common photo issue.

ATTENTION: In October we will have a meeting exclusively devoted to
basic photography.  There will be short talks, with most of the meeting
devoted to small break-out discussion groups.  This meeting will cover
matters facing those members who say "I only have a point and shoot
camera - I can't compete with you guys".  Or "You guys always talk over
my head, I just want to know the basics".  There's no excuse for not
attending this meeting.

'See you on June 24th - write it down.

Stan
