Here's what's happening at GSACC...
Thursday October 4th is the Education Meeting. It will be talk by Peter Florczak on "Secrets from a GSACC Photographer of the Year, Lightroom—How to Organize for GSACC Competition.”
Do remember doing your homework assignments at the very last minute? Remember studying for that test the night before when you had all month to do so? How did that work out for you?
I might not be the best photographer, but I might be the most organized. Keep an open mind and in one hour on October 4th at 7:30 PM, I am going to show you some of my tips and tricks on how I organize my photos so that I always have a ready supply of high quality work available when that competitions deadline approaches--- sometimes all too quickly.
Hey, it’s worked for me, and it can work for you too!
