Micron Photo Club Agenda November 7th 2019

Review October Assignment "Fall Color"

November Assignment " Emulate your favorite Photograph/Photographer"
           Fine and image or style you like in photography and try to mimic it, not an exact copy. For instance if your favorite photographer is Edward Western, take some pictures of Bell Peppers.


This Months Presentation  Chase Hunter Faroe Islands and Iceland 


Chase was born and raised in Boise where early on he developed an interest in exploring all of Idaho’s natural beauty from the Owyhees to the Sawtooths. During his college years pursuing his Bachelor’s degree at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Chase got the opportunity to live and work in a variety of places including Colorado, Portland, and Wales as part of his internships and studying abroad. Such experiences helped further invigorate an interest in seeing all of the world’s most beautiful locations. Upon starting work at Micron in 2017 and with his first Micron paycheck, Chase purchased his first DSLR (a Canon Rebel T6i) that he still uses to this day. Since buying his camera, he has been actively working to enhance his photography skills and refined his focus to the field of landscape photography. While Chase finds himself most often photographing the mountainous landscapes of the Western US, he still finds great passion in going on one or two international photography trips a year to countries of significant natural beauty. In recent years, Chase has had a particular affinity for Nordic landscapes, leading him on photography journeys through the rugged landscapes of places like the Faroe Islands and Iceland.

Glen will be sharing ideas on different methods of backing up your image and files, along with some key wording techniques to help find images in year to come.  

The question has come up on many occasions; where can I save all of files, back them up, and be able to find them again later? How can I be safe if I loose a hard drive? will I loose all of the data stored on that? How can I be safe?! Glen will address some of these issues. Might even be sprinkled with some Lightroom techniques too.

The company started when Phil saw a need for a camera rental business in the Treasure Valley. There was nowhere in town to rent a flash, lens, camera or even get a photography lesson! Phil thought to himself, “I’m tired of saying no [to potential customers].” So, he took his idea and started to figure out a way to rent equipment to local photographers and filmmakers in the Boise, Idaho area. As a photographer and collector of digital and film camera equipment, Phil had quite the selection of lenses and camera bodies. He also had a good idea of what potential customers would be interested in renting, so he invested in two full-frame cameras and then made a large purchase of lenses.
