Hello, Firstname
 
DI Group - Monday 8 March
I had many complimentary emails last month after the DI meeting because of a variety of presentations and lots of useful information given by the presenters at that meeting. Next Monday it is again time for the monthly Digital Group meeting when I am hoping you will have equally interesting presentations. I already have some from Jim Marsden whose images I could not fit in last month and I am hoping to deconstruct one of mine to show one or two simple techniques in creative imaging I learned in creating them.
 
In the last newsletter you will have read about Bob Faris who sadly passed away last Sunday. He was a truly creative person and to encourage others he has donated a Trophy to be awarded to the winner of yearly Creative competition coming up in July (closing date 16 June this year). DI meeting is an ideal place to share your thoughts informally. Your successful images with thoughts and techniques behind them and equally failures too, if you wish to explore them further would be welcome in your presentation. If you would like to just show off your work or invite comments on your images for other upcoming competitions or otherwise please send them to me for presentation on Monday. I look forward to seeing them.
 
Please send your images to me by Sunday 7 March, 6 pm.  Images: JPG format, sRGB, 1600 x 1200 pixels (same as competitions but not strict), prefix filenames with 01, 02, 03 etc. if you wish to show them in that order. Email attachment size - max 20Mb per email.
 
Look forward to seeing you on Monday.
 
Ashwin Chauhan, Digital Imaging Group
 
PS. After last Wednesdays’ stimulating talk on their creative photography I am thinking of inviting Sharon and Robert Prenton Jones for a further talk or demonstration to the DI group on creative techniques. On Monday I hope to get more feedback from members present on what they would like included in their talk if that can be arranged. Please let me have your thoughts if you can’t attend.
