Congratulations to the top photos that earned "10's" at our meeting. The assignment was "Panning".

Thank you everyone who made it to the May Critique. Our judge for the evening was Richard Hockett. For this meeting he used PPA guidelines for judging and thus used their scoring system as well; anything 80 and above earned a merit.

The following are the images that earned a merit in the assigned category of Painting With Light.

Thank you everyone who attended the 2012 Holiday Party. I hope you all had a great time with the wonderful members, great food and cool presenter. Our presenter for the evening was Blue Fier... a really great photographer. Check him out at: www.bluefier.com.

Hello f/Stops Members,
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

As previously announced, our December meeting (Thursday 12/13) will be a pot luck holiday party ONLY for paid members (sorry, no guests) and past judges.

If you are going to attend, note the following:

1. Bring some food! It can be home made or store bought. Be advised, however, that there will be no way to heat up food on premises. Make sure that whatever you bring (appetizer, entree or dessert) will serve 6-8 people. Also, if your dish requires serving utensils, please bring them. The club will supply plates, napkins, eating utensils, cups, coke, diet coke, sprite and water.

2. Bring your camera! It would be great to have the members take some photos of the evening for our web site.

3. We will have free door prizes! All members will receive a ticket upon check in for a chance to win some cool gifts.

4. A special presenter is scheduled!

5. We would like to have each member submit 2 of your best shots from this year. They will be projected through out the evening for everyone to enjoy. Simply submit them according to our regular submission guidelines by Monday, 12/10.

Hope to see you all there!

Best regards,
Monica

Congratulations to Mary Grant-Young, a new f/Stops member, on winning the November 50/50 drawing. Enjoy the $34!

Congratulations to the 2 photos that were the only ones that earned 10's in the Open category; none were awarded in the assigned. Looks like we all need practice on our Black & White skills! 

Just a reminder that our next meeting is this coming Thursday! Our assignment is Black & White and we will be welcoming Jim Cornfield as our judge. Hope to see you all there!

Congratulations to Stuart Greenberg on his win of $52 in our 1st 50/50 drawing... you could be next!
