Next Photo Assignment — Holiday Photos

By Dave Navarro, Jr., on November 5th, 2010%

Another full house at the Novem­ber meet­ing!  It was great see­ing so many peo­ple there.  Scott’s pre­sen­ta­tion on Flash Pho­tog­ra­phy was great and the chance to see his flash equip­ment was very cool.  It was also nice to see so many mem­bers par­tic­i­pate in the Fall Col­ors assignment.

The next meet­ing will be on Decem­ber 7th and many mem­bers will be arriv­ing early (5:00pm) to share some hol­i­day snacks in the Library’s cafe.  The reg­u­lar meet­ing will start at 6:30pm. December’s assign­ment is “Hol­i­day Pho­tos” which includes food, so be sure to get plenty of pho­tos from your Thanks­giv­ing Day prepa­ra­tions.  The pro­gram for Decem­ber will ten­ta­tively be shoot­ing out­door pic­tures with snow, unless we come up with some­thing else.

October 2010 Meeting

By Dave Navarro, Jr., on September 21st, 2010%

The Octo­ber 2010 meet­ing will be on the 5th at 6:30pm in the Topeka Library.  When you enter the library, just check the mon­i­tors in the lobby to see which meet­ing room we are located.

October’s meet­ing will pri­mar­ily be a report on the La Crosse N4C Con­ven­tion by Greg Hoglund and Scott Udey.  If the Sep­tem­ber photo con­test sub­mis­sion results are in, we’ll go over those.  And we’ll review sub­mis­sions for the Octo­ber photo contest.

This month’s photo theme is “Back to School/End of Sum­mer”, so please email your sub­mis­sions to Scott Udey by Tues­day, Sep­tem­ber 26th.

Come Join Us on Flickr!

By admin, on July 21st, 2010%

The Topeka Cam­era Club now has a ded­i­cated Flickr group for show­cas­ing our work.  As a TCC mem­ber you may post your pho­tos to the group pool and par­tic­i­pate in dis­cus­sions.  Any­one who is not a TCC mem­ber may visit the group, view the pool pho­tographs, but may not sub­mit pho­tos for the pool.

If you are already a Flickr mem­ber (free or paid, doesn’t mat­ter) you can click on this URL to visit our group:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/topekacameraclub/

Once you are there, sim­ply click the “Join” link to request access.  Flickr will send an email to admins let­ting them know you are here.  After they have approved you, the “Join” link will be replaced with an “Add Some­thing” link which will allow you to add pho­tos from your port­fo­lio to the TCC Group.

If you are NOT a Flickr mem­ber, you can join for free.  Sim­ply visit:

http://www.flickr.com

And click on the link to join.  Flickr is owned by Yahoo!, so if you have a Yahoo! ID, you can sim­ply log in to Flickr using your exist­ing Yahoo! ID. If you do not have a Yahoo! ID, you can choose to cre­ate one, or sign up to Flickr with your email address.

Once you have signed up, sim­ply click on the above link to the TCC Group and join us!

If you don’t know much about Flickr, that’s fine.  At our August meet­ing, new mem­ber Dave Navarro will be giv­ing a demon­stra­tion of the Flickr site. So be sure to come!
