2022 FOTOFOCUS BIENNIAL. The theme for its sixth edition of the FotoFocus Biennial will be World Record with a concentrated week of programming held October 1–8, 2022, and preview events on September 30, 2022.  The theme World Record considers film and photography’s record of life on earth, while exploring humankind’s impact on the natural world and the choices—for ill or good—we now face as a global community.

Mark Buelsing at markb@letitshine.biz asked for photos of cars, auto shows, and auto events to be submitted to gocarshow.com.

Old Business:

A list of businesses that print, such as Meijer, Dodd, ProCam, and Pop Revolution, will be added to the club’s website.  Please send any information on print vendors to Karen Kindness.  Future presentations on how to print will occur.

New Business:

The new web domain name is www.cincyphoto.club.  The .club extension better defines the organization, since it is a photo club and not a business.  This name costs about $20/ year, very similar to the .com name.

Presentation:
Shannon O’Connor enlightened the members about Composition.
