Talk about it

The Mitchell Camera Club judged photos Dec. 27 for our Jan. 3 meeting at the County Fair Banquet Hall. This month’s category was “Neon Signs.” Next month’s category is “Technique.”

This month, the club discussed various techniques for next month’s category. The club also watched a video on “macro,” a style or technique used in photography. Also, Ty Smith brought a video the club watched about “landscape and portrait” photography using certain light as a technique. We appreciate the use of the banquet hall and thank County Fair.
