A meet with Post processing in NC & Photoshop

Postby birddog114 on Sat Sep 25, 2004 6:01 pm

Hi All,
Firstly, thanking Matt for spend some time to share your experiences today at the meet.
We had a meet today with MattK and plukaduck about CCD cleaning topic. At the meet we discussed with Matt about PP in NC4.1xx & Photoshop + PSCS and I am going to offer a workshop with maximum of 4 members at my place, Matt will run and sharing some stuff that he knew, same as other members may have something to show to us as well.
We might pick up a topic to learn at the meet, such as flash, lighting, macro, RAW files, histogram, curves etc....

Location: My place.

Facility: Each member will be allocated to 1 PC with LAN and internet connection by a cable modem.

Time: Saturday or Sunday and 01 session requires at least 2-3Hr

Tea & coffee provided. Perhaps with a beer for refreshment (Crown Lager or Corona not Cooper)after the workshop.

Require to bring along your camera, no children please.

My garden can be used as shooting sceneries with flowers, trees and monuments, airplane model kits, flight helmet etc.

We will take photo in the garden and bring it up to the computer and asking questions or sharing some tricks/ cheats.

How do you think? Is anyone interested?

I'll have some marinated steak to go with!!!

What date do you want to do it? Any ideas?

Gary & Leigh & MattK are you coming?
I'll try to get a Epson Photo Stylus printer 2100, so MattK can play around with it in this meet.

Hey, this is a great idea for a meet!!!
I'm always wondering whether I've managed to get the most out of an image after a little postprocessing.
I'd certainly be interested, depending on when it's held... 'er in doors has me chained to the garden at the minute... :cry:

No preference between Saturdays or Sundays, but my anniversary is on the 18th of October, so it looks like I will be away week of 16 - 24 October, any other is good for me but if that doesn't suit others that is fine

I think the 9th October but then again, It's Election day! or on the Sunday 10/10. 16/10 I'll do some training, I'm waiting and asking MattK first, or we mayleave it till the end of October, is it suitable for everyone (30/10)

Ummm, I can't do the 9th or 10th of October... Going to the Zig Zag Railway for a "Friends of Thomas Day" :) (Don't you love having kids)

Probably my preference woudl be to leave it until closer to the end of October.

Glen, Mj, Woody, plukaduck,

We make it on the 30/10, I hope this date will suit everyone, perhaps there's room for Onyx if he want to join with us after he came back from NYC, + plukaduck came back from biz trip.

Your thoughts?
