7:30 PM: Meeting starts
The focus of tonight's meeting is Title My Image.
Do you struggle to title your images? Have you ever received feedback that your image and title aren't a good match? Would tweaking your title help your image to perform better in a competition? It's a common challenge!
Title My Image night can help. We'll ask fellow club members what they would title your image. And, you'll have an opportunity to suggest titles for others' images. It will be fun and informative.
How to Participate: Submit one image (including your title) by the deadline (Noon on the day of Title My Image), using the Title My Image upload form in the Uploads area of the NSPS website.

Program Title: Making Monochrome Magic
Description: Lee Nordbye--a Calgary based photographer--believes that, with the camera gear today, the traditional model of teaching the technical first then the art side needs to be flipped, with art becoming the main focus.
