NEXT MEETING JANUARY 14, 6:30 PM
Club member Paul Winberg will give a presentation on the basics of what is required for printing a quality image. He will discuss what your viewing intent is, such as for a fine art print, snapshot print, or just posting online.
Paul will dispel the mystery of print resolution and how many pixels are enough for a “good” image. He will have sample prints made at a variety of resolutions so you may get a feel for the differences. He will walk through the print setting dialogue screens from Lightroom and Photoshop and discuss the different options.
Before the meeting, Paul will post an outline of the class, including charts, under the Education tab on this website. You may want to print that and bring to the meeting, as well as having it for future reference.

Judge for March Print Competition - Kirk Stephen Jordan
Kirk Stephen Jordan of Conway, Arkansas serves as the chief photographer for the Arkansas Department of Parks, Heritage and Tourism. As a photographer and writer, Kirk enjoys looking at natural things in less natural ways. He approaches seeing as a form of worship. His photos show up in numerous periodicals, pamphlets, and on web sites (most often without attribution.) Prior to his current stint, Kirk worked fifteen years as the Governor's photographer, serving Governors Huckabee, Beebe, and Hutchinson. Prior to that Kirk ran his own photo business, and prior to that, he served as photojournalist for the Southwest Times Record of Fort Smith, Arkansas. Kirk belongs to his wife Kerry Jordan (a professor of Nursing at the University of Central Arkansas) -- and to three young-adult daughters. His other keen interests include writing poems and collecting vinyl. (Roots, psychedelia, Gospel.) He would have spun out long ago except for the stabling influence of his wife. Kirk and wife have taken to a new ‘after hours’ responsibility, taking care of his wife’s aging parents. Kirk has found even here, a creative wellspring, and is now working on a book entitled Things Charlie Says, given the humor and pathos of Alzheimer’s. |
