Hi Dave,

Great tip! I just joined the FB-group, waiting for being accepted in. :)

How is this working? You meet at different places and the experienced photographers help the newbies?

I have to admit that after one year I'm still pretty helpless with my Canon. Only shoting in automatic mode :o My pics are ok, but far from being good.......reading your exchange I have even no idea what lightroom is. Will google lateron.

Cheers

Birgit

I didn't know what Lightroom was either a few months ago! It's software from Adobe, like Photoshop but for photographers. Really easy to use.

The photography group started on Meetup.com. There's two good groups on there, "Creative Photography" and "TWIP".

Creative Photography is now on Facebook which is easier for me. Meet ups are as and when, but generally there's one a fortnight. In the past we've done early morning CBD and Lake Monger, the Pride festival, a car show in Swan Valley, sunsets at Trigg etc. There was one at the Pinnacles a couple of months ago. On Saturday it's the fireworks at Hillarys. The TWIP group had a great theme earlier this year for Perth Street Art, which included a couple of large prints and an exhibition, all for $70 - I learnt so much with that, and the organiser Jim did a couple of free training sessions on Lightroom.

Carmen, the organiser for Creative Photography is pretty talented, as are some of the others. Most people are learners of various abilities, so it's a great way to learn even if you know nothing about your camera.
