Portfolio Review – Notes from November 7th, 2018

At this meeting we did review photographs submitted by the Members of Grimsby Photo Group.
We collectively provided constructive feedback in a non-competitive environment.
Adobe Lightroom  software supported the analysis of the images and the discovery of opportunities for improvement.

Meeting Minutes

Date: November 7, 2018 (in lieu of October 31 due to Halloween)
Location: Town Hall Council Chambers, 7:00 – 9:00 pm

Featured Topic: Portfolio Review

The first hour of the meeting covered photos submitted for review by our members. This is the second review of 2018, and we are still working on the best way to proceed in order to maximize the overall experience. Possible photo enhancements were shown using Lightroom and Luminar.

 Thank you to all who submitted photos for review! Even though there was not sufficient time to see all photos submitted, we will allocate a segment of our November meeting to show them so we can all share our collective work.
