Photo Arts Club

The Photo Arts Club will meet on Thursday, May12, at 1:30 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 5. Instructor Ben Benjamins will demonstrate how to send photos as an attachment via email. All participants will be asked to send at least three photos each month to his email so the images can be shown on a highdefinition TV in the classroom.

The object of future lessons will be how to make and create photos, not just take pictures. There will be discussions on the following topics: people pictures, landscape photos, night photography, composition and balance, photo cropping, close-up work, photo correction using software such as Photoshop and most photo apps, etc. The assignment for the May meeting is to make a portrait. Members are asked to bring any of their photos to share for the vote. The winning three photos will be hung in Clubhouse 3.

Everyone is welcome. For more information, call Regine Schumacher at (562) 430-7978.
