Starting at 11am
4225 White House Canyon Rd
Davenport, CA 95017
(contact Rosanna for directions)

Come at 11am for the Arte Motu Meeting

or

Come at 12:30pm for the Photoshop Session I led by Beth Ross
(bring a dish to share)
or
Come at 1:30pm for a Hike to Chalk Mountain
(and hopefully it won't rain; email if you need further details on the hike)


or COME TO All Three Events!

This is how it works:

After the meeting, we'll take some group photos with both a professional camera and a smartphone. Then we will load these images on to Beth's computer (bring your cameras and your computer if you wish to follow along with your tools). We'll have an array of resolutions and that will be useful for pointing out the pros and cons of small/large files.

At that point we can select an image or two to process in Photoshop.

Beth will briefly explain and demonstrate:
- resolution (pixel dimension), resizing, repurposing (for online/email usage, for print)

- histograms (range of rgb values)

- color and value enhancement

The Photoshop Session I will be videotaped so that absentees will be able to check it out at a later time.



After the Photoshop Session I, it is possible, if it does not rain, to go for a hike to Chalk Mountain. The trailhead starts from Whitehouse Canyon Rd, half way to the canyon. It is mostly uphill, but it has beautiful natural scenery, and vistas of the coastside and Ano Nuevo. And, all downhill on the way back!! :)
