Introduction to Lightroom
Thanks Adam for the introduction to Lightroom. Personally I learnt some really good tips and couldn’t wait to try some of them out. To have a meaningful, useful discussion about such a big topic is a challenge and I think you did really well. Some of the takeaways for me were:
Sharpening – using the alt key to get the masking right before applying the sharpening. Include when exporting
Noise reduction - Look more into it!
HSL – can use luminance to adjust a specific colour in an image eg bring back some more blue to a bright (washed out?) sky or reduce distracting green in a background
Photomatrix Pro. Well regarded. Should be able to find a promo voucher for 15% cost reduction if you look around

Photo shoot
Tentatively looking to do a sunset shoot on a farm with boulders & rocky outcrop on Wednesday 19th afternoon/evening in the Creighton Gooram area. Pete to setup with land owner.
People are interested in doing more shoots, so shout out if you have an idea and let’s get a group together.
Great to see Kobe, Dan and Ollie from http://www.misterandlady.com.au/ pop in to introduce themselves.
Thanks for supper Clair
Next Meeting: Dec 3rd December. 7.30pm at the ECEC
Deb to lead a discussion about something she is passionate about! (ie she can pick her own topic)
Photo review. Hopefully we’ll review photos from the landscape shoot on 19/11/14. People to bring 2 images on a USB stick to show on the projector for group discussion.
Mike to bring supper.
Happy snapping!
