We will be meeting this coming Thursday (the 20th) at the usual time and place (i.e. 7 PM at the Jaffery Civic Center).

There are two items on the agenda for this month...

1. A live demonstration of cyanotype printing.
   
   Frank Gorga will coat paper with cyanotype chemistry, expose the paper using a digitally-made 8"x10" negative and a UV light source and, finally, develop the final image. All right before your very eyes!!!!
   
   
2. Book sharing
   
   Do you have a favorite photography book... or two... or three?! It could be a "how to" book or a book of photographs that inspire you. If so, bring them along to this meeting and tell folks about them... both the strong points and the weak points.
   
   Jot the author and title down on a piece of paper, we'll collect those and publish a list of them here on the club website.

As always, if you want to show some prints bring them along. If you want to show digital images, please let Frank know a couple of days ahead of time so that we can have the equipment present and set up.
