We are planning to conduct our Macro Focus Group Meeting as an online meeting using Zoom software. All Macro focus group members who have paid their BPC dues for this year will be invited to join this online meeting at 7:00 pm. You will need to install Zoom software on your computer prior to the meeting. Your computer must be equipped with a camera and a microphone to fully participate. Your cell phone may be substituted for a microphone. Instructions for logging into the meeting will be sent to you by email. Here is more information about Zoom meetings.

Photoshare:  Juliet keeps saying that I advocate "less is better". I do have fun zeroing in of parts of pictures that I have taken to find some something new. So...I'm putting out a challenge for our next meeting. Attached is a photo I took of a dumpster out at the recycle place in Ellettsville. It is completely abstract. What I'm hoping each of you will do is to find a part of it that attracts you, then put your own spin on it with the available tools, filters, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one photo will produce unique works of art, one from each of you.

We will set the limit of shared photos to 8 as in last month. Guess we should try to select macro photos to share. The images should be jpegs, with the longest side 1400 pixels.  The ppi (resolution) does not matter. Please label them: Your name-01.jpg with the number indicating the order that you want the photos presented. Then send them to me by noon on the 27th so I can get them into the file I use for sharing with everyone.

Hope everyone had a good holiday and wishing you all a Happier New Year!
