Water, Water, What did you see? Fibonacci Looking at Me
Last night was great fun. Colorful water, laughter, learning, and practicing. We added a new member. Welcome Megan.
I hope everyone was able to capture something fun to share at our next meeting. We will meet on February 5th for a show-and-tell. Our meeting coordinators for February are Tom Smith and Tim O'Shaugnessy. I wonder what they have planned for our meeting?

Hello 2014 and our Three Year Anniversary
Sycamore Photo Club celebrates it's 3 year anniversary at our next meeting. I guess that means that many of the group will also celebrate three years of photo club, learning, and making new friends. I wonder if we will gain some new friends/members again this year?
It should be a fun evening, Candi and I will be hosting the meeting with a short presentation on photographing colored water and then we will all practice the techniques. Be sure to bring your camera; a macro lens and tripod if you have them. If you don't have the macro lens or tripod, bring your camera so you can play and figure out ways to make close up photography work for you.
In addition to our 3 year anniversary, we will be saying farewell, to one of our members as she takes off for a warmer climate. Cathi Ruen will be leaving us for Arizona. I know that she will still be a member in spirit and may even start up a group with Scott Erwin who also moved out there a couple years ago.
I have set a 2014 photography challenge for myself. Here is a link to my personal blog post about the monthly challenge. If you read the post when I first put it up, please note that I have filled it out a bit more providing more detail about my plans for each month.
If you want to become a better photographer, the Number 1 thing that you can do, is do more photography. Number 2 is try new thing, Number 3 is to read about photography, Number 4 is to go back to number 1. I encourage everyone to find a challenge that is just right for them. If you like mine, I am happy to share and would love to see what and how you are doing.
Happy Photographing!
