Is your cell phone your favorite camera? Do you fuss over those photos, editing and enhancing them? If so, join with LLC’ers who are experimenting with and enjoying cell phone photography and photo editing. It’s creative, instructive, social, and fun.
Our activities: Going on photo shoots together, sharing our photos with a congenial group, and learning about genres of photography, such as nature, night, black and white, or other types.
Our tools: Our cell phones (Apple or Android) and any editing app (i.e., Snapseed, Apple Photo, etc.). Familiarity with a photo editing app is necessary.
Format: Three activities:
(1) Three photo shoots, locales TBD on day #1, may involve car ride;
(2) Three photo sharing sessions at Beth-El;
(3) Three presentations or guest lectures at Beth-El. Everyone is expected to help with club tasks: Choosing photo shoot locales, creating photo slideshows, emailing notices; help with presentations.
Ten weeks, Day #1 is organizational.
Resources/Expenses: No text. Participants share links to online materials that enhance our photo and editing skills, but familiarity with an editing app is necessary.
Coordinators Ellen Fingeret, Margaret Lawrence, and Linda Shamoon learned about cell phone photography in LLC’s Photography class. They are now enthusiastic cell phone photographers and photo editors.
