Lightroom is much more than just an application to manage and edit your photos. Lightroom is a complete cloud based system that connects you with your images every where you go, on every device you own. Theresa will demonstrate how it works using a computer, iPhone and an iPad. Her presentation will include:
- What the Lightroom ecosystem is and how it works
- Creative Cloud subscription plan options
- How much cloud storage you get with your subscription, and why it matters
- What the difference is between Lightroom and Lightroom Classic. Which one should you use.
- How to automatically sync Lightroom mobile photography back to your desktop computer

Monica Royal has agreed to hold a workshop at the PAB for SCACC members only. The cost is $125. I’ve taken this workshop 3xs and each time it was fantastic.
This will be a small hands-on workshop. Monica will bring a light table and 2 macro light tents for everyone to play with. She will bring lots of cool macro subject matter to photography, gadgets and gizmos-a-plenty! She will also bring some tools for applying water drops and teach the technique involved in that process. Attendees will need to bring:
What to bring: Essentials: 1) macro lens; 2) tripod; 3) light source; flashlight, portable LED etc; 4) subject matter – anything that inspires you or challenges you; 5) Your imagination!
Not necessary but IF you have these, bring them: 1) Cable release / remote trigger system; 2) a small black (and one of white) piece of cardstock or foam core etc. Even painted cardboard will work; 3) Clips, clamps, closepins. Tape, glue etc. anything else that you use to secure objects or lean things on; 4) If you want to work with water, bring a spray bottle and anything you might use to apply drops (I also have applicators that I will share)
Start thinking about your prints for the Fair! Larry is a first-class instructor and we are thrilled to have him on our roster. He will critique and recommend changes using Photoshop. Attached are the guidelines for submitting your 3 images:
Files must be prepared for digital projection with these guidelines:
1) Files should be flattened with no layers
2) All files should be in 8 Bit depth
3) JPEG format
4) OK to leave in Adobe RGB color space or convert to sRGB
5) Longest dimension to be 2,000 pixels (this allows for best projection)
6) File size not to exceed 3 megabytes
7) File resolution can be left at your camera native resolution, such as 240, or it
can be at a resolution of 72 as long as the required pixel dimensions of 2,000 are met
8) Save the file with your last name and number them like this example with your name in place of mine: Vogel_001, Vogel_002, Vogel_003
