Please follow the guidelines on our web site listed below, to resize your photos. PLEASE DO NOT SEND zipped files!

BRING YOUR CAMERA: We have baby cat “Sabeena”, a Bengal tiger, visiting this meeting. Prior to the arrival of the baby tiger, Gordon Campbell will give us some tips on photographing Sabeena.

Do you have some travel plans in the near future? Don’t miss Joe Fitzpatrick’s presentation on “Have Camera Will Travel”. You’ll know what to pack for your next trip.

Christine Cook has some ideas she wants to share on “Creating Digital Art”.
As always, several door prizes will be available for our members and any new members who join at the meeting. 

Don’t forget to bring a dollar or two….. we request that you make a donation in the receptacle provided at the entry table to help offset the rental cost of the conference room. Many thanks to all who contribute each month.

Don’t toss those photography magazines or books! Bring them to the meeting for the “Free” table. If you are a member, you may also display photography items on the “For Sale” table.

All Meeting Previews & Meeting Notes are posted on our web site: dpi-sig.org/breaking-news.

Hope to see you at our 103rd meeting on Thursday night!
