Computer Backup and Photo Assignment #7

  • Champaign Public Library; Robeson Pavilion Room C 200 West Green Street Champaign, IL, 61820 United States (map)

Club president, Steve Heater, will discuss disaster proofing and recovery in photography.  He will discuss the risks posing loss, backup strategies, and his own personal experience with a near disaster, potentially losing 25 years of work and around 300,000 photos.

Tonight we hope to share results from photo assignment #7:

With this assignment, we want members to go out within 60 days prior to tonight’s meeting and take up to four photos (no more than 2 of any 1 subject). The photos should include at least one of the following categories: animals (including pets), monochrome (any one color) and/or the color green. If you can include two or three of the categories in your photo, even better. The maximum size for a projected image is 1400 x 1050 pixels. To learn more about preparing your image for projection on the library projector, see this information. You can email the photos to the club email champaigncountycameraclub@gmail.com by noon December 9th, or bring them on a flash drive.

Get your camera ready and take some shots! Leadership believes this will be a really fun way to encourage members to get out there and photograph the world around you.
