Members – Did you Know? (12)

We’re getting close to the end of this series of DYK articles. Promise.

Did you know – our club has had a couple of “Special Interest Groups” over the years. We currently have only one group; our Post Processing SIG. This group meets monthly to talk about what you do to your images after (post) you’ve taken them. Some photographers do nothing, we’re not a group for those people. If you do anything from editing, to culling and organizing, to printing, to posting then this group might be for you. We’re not a workshop series to teach post processing but we will dive into all sorts of different software and techniques. We get together to discuss and teach each other. Most meeting are online (Zoom).

The join our PP SIG contact admin@kwphotoclub.com.

If you’d like to see another SIG form bring it up to our president. ((President@kwphotoclub.com). SIG’s can be almost anything photography related. Birding, travel, camera (Canon, Nikon …), studio, etc. We’ll help you try to get your SIG rolling.

Eleventh DYK .. if you’re a member and this isn’t getting you super excited, I can’t imagine what would! I’m thinking of making a full length movie out of these.

Did you know– as a member you are able to share some of your pictures each month with the other members. Every month our illustrious club president picks a theme and you’re invited to upload three images to be shown at the monthly meeting. The session is called share and LEARN. When your time comes to share you can say whatever you want about your images especially if it includes information others might find illuminating. Keep it “G” rated.

To upload your share and learn images use either the link on the Monday morning email or sign into the website where you should see a link on the welcome page.

Our tenth DYK and still more out there. Did you know we could go this long?

Did you Know – if you log in and go to the Members Only tab you will find a page for club Mentors. These kind folks are willing to spend time with other members like yourself who may want help to improve their skills. Our names and contact info on that page are there for a reason…we want to help.

You too can become a mentor. Just let me know.

Now I know that you don’t know this one. I’ve been managing our website for about ten years and I’ve only seen this done a couple of times. What is this mysterious member benefit that so few are taking advantage of?

Did you know – As a member, if you sign in, you can comment on posts! Yes, that feature exists and would allow you to stand out among this membership group by being one of the very few who have tried this… and who doesn’t want to stand out!

To comment on a post you first have to “isolate” the post on its own page. If the post is in the News section, for example, you can click on the post title and it will appear on its own page. Scroll to the page bottom and you’ll see a box to comment. Say something nice. Remember the sage words of the baby goose, “What would mother say?”

Posts you click on from the list of recent posts on the front page also appear isolated on their own page.

.Looking forward to see if we have any takers.

Our continuing DYK series could go on forever. There are so many excellent benefits to becoming a member.

Did you know – we have a lunch group that meets on the Wednesday a week before our monthly club meeting. We meet at various local eateries to solve the problems plaguing humanity. The fact that we haven’t succeeded to solve any makes us only more determined to keep having lunch.

As a member you can request to be put on our lunch bunch mailing list. Admin@kwphotoclub.com

Fifth in the series …yes I got a bunch more.

Did you know – we also record many of our workshops (when I remember). If they’re not scheduled so you can make them, just sign in to our website, go to the “members only” tab and you’ll find them.

As you did before with the monthly speaker videos, grab another adult beverage, sit back and enjoy.

Caution. With all these beverages don’t be watching too many of our videos.

Caveat… your’s truly didn’t get every meeting recorded, but I tried.

Every week through year end we’ll be “revealing” another great reason for becoming a member. We’ve got at least 12 posts lined up. We checked and the market value of each of these tips is $50, but we’re giving them to paid up members free! 13×50=$650, and our membership is only $20! Don’t believe our independent market value? Google it.

All kidding aside. Our membership is a great value.
