On Tuesday members welcomed Mrs Libby Smith who gave an excellent presentation titled 'Making More of your Images'.
Libby is a member of Carluke Camera Club and is well known throughout photographic circles in the UK for her hard work with the 'Scottish Photographic Federation' and the 'Photographic Alliance of Great Britain' organisations in which she has won many awards. She is an excellent photographer and is recognized as an expert in photographic editing.
In her presentation she demonstrated, by showing many of her own photographs, the importance of 'Contrast' in an image and how it was a tool to draw the viewers attention into a picture and to the main focal point as the author saw it.
Libby examined a series of photographs from members and demonstrated that be adding contrast, lightening and darkening certain parts of the image, many were greatly improved.
This was greatly appreciated and members at both advanced and novice levels learned something form the presentation.
Next Tuesdays meeting is the second presentation by Will Peat and his subjet is 'Shutter Speeds'.
