The AAUW Photography Interest Group currently meets via Zoom once a month, on the 3rd Thursday from 10-12 AM and is open to any member who is interested in improving her/his photographic skills. Members share up to 5 digital images reflecting recent photos taken using a wide variety of cameras: point and shoot, smartphones, pro-sumer, and high end DSLRs. Our emphasis is on improvement with gentle critique.
The Group Leader will send an e-mail reminder before the monthly meeting identifying the assigned subject, the person responsible for organizing the photos, the deadline to submit your photos, and the meeting location.
