We learned about Macro Photography from Andy Doc Legacy Pischalnikoff, and then we broke up and set up things to shoot. Andy worked his way around the room and provided information and help where needed, and we greatly enjoyed his presentation. We had flowers and all sorts of interesting objects, and people used their point-and-shoot cameras along with people who used their DSLR cameras. The evening was enjoyed by all. I would like to thank those of you who provided tutoring to people who are new at Macro, and especially want to thank all who helped me put all our equipment away and lock up for the night. Much appreciated! Donna Sturla We will be having another competition for General Photography Meeting on April 10th. May 8th is a program. Sam Shaw will teach us how he creates his magic!

Congratulations to Lynne Anzelc for her Single Image of the Night Yosemite Valley Winter Floor and to Willis Price for the wild and crazy Sequence of the Night, Zombie Walk. Mike was able to give us some great constructive feedback on the travel images now that more time is available to us. Many people commented that they like having Travel and Nature in two separate competitions just for that reason. Our next Travel Competition will be May 7th, so mark your calendars!
