Photochrome Camera Club

The area is known for its California line cable car contrasting with city skyscrapers, culinary shops and great restaurants. It’s situated approximately between Sacramento and Market streets from north to south, and Font and Kearny streets east to west. Photographs taken both indoors and outdoors are welcomed.

Directions: The best way to get there is by muni. Street car stops are at Montgomery and Embarcadero stations.

Let’s meet at the Crocker Galleria located at 50 Post Street. We decided to meet there at 10:00 on the lower level in front of the coffee shop on the north end (which might be Tulleys). This place is only one block from the Montgomery station. It may also be a good place to meet around 12:00 to have coffee. Don’t forget to photograph the Crocker Galleria since it is an icon in the Financial District.

Digital Darkroom

Photoshop Night is only held every few years, but each time there have been rave reviews. This meeting is different from any other event of the year. We will have four tables set up, with four instructors there to demonstrate different aspects of digital editing. Each half hour a class comes to an end, and students then move on to the next station.

This year ours instructors are:

1. Martin Taylor, teaching “Photoshop Elements 101” (handout notes).
2. Keith Gorlen demonstrating “Content Aware Fill”.
3. Bob Nelson demonstrating “Elements of Lightroom”.
4. Alan Heald showing us “How Best to Lighten and Darken Parts of a Photo”.

This will be an interesting and informative evening. Bring a notebook!
