Tuesday, November 19, 2013 meeting, 7:30 – 9:30pm: Dennis Goulet – Close Up: Tools and Techniques
Close up and macro photography can be exciting and rewarding; it can also be frustrating and discouraging at times. This program addresses the tools available and the proper techniques required to improve the potential for successful close up photography .Dennis describes the lenses and lens accessories needed to get close, control of camera and subject movement, control of light using reflectors and flash, and special techniques such as double exposures, diffusion and vigneting. Merging multiple images into a panoramic macro image and focus stacking techniques are also demonstrated. Numerous examples are used throughout the presentation to illustrate the Tools and Techniques of Close Up photography.
Dennis is a member of Photographic Society of Rhode Island, and concentrates his photographic endeavors on nature and landscape subjects. Dennis’ images have appeared in several magazines including Audubon, Nature’s Best Photography, Wild Bird, Birder’s World, Rhode Island Monthly, Outdoor Photographer, and Sierra, as well as on the websites of Audubon and National Wildlife magazine. His image of a Green-breasted Mango was selected Grand Prize Winner of Audubon Magazine’s 2010 Birds-In-Focus photography contest.

From Mike Di Stefano:
Howdy all my Camera Club friends
I was asked to send this special meeting announcement out to Southern NE camera clubs for distribution to their membership. This looks like a great program presented by a famous New England Photographer that I know personally and love his images. It certainly will be worth the drive to Newport, RI. Hey, if your retired, make a day of it, Newport without all those tourist to mess up your images. I wish I could make it, but I’ll be judging a competition out on the Cape the same night. For more info, contact Jack Renner, see e-mail below. Thanks for your assistance in getting the word out.

INFLUENCES FROM THE MASTERS OF PHOTOGRAPHY
A PRESENTATION BY MASTER PHOTOGRAPHER RON ROSENSTOCK FOR THE NEWPORT PHOTO GUILD
The tradition of photography as fine art dates back to the turn of the 20th century with Alfred Stieglitz, passed on to Edward Weston, to Ansel Adams and more recently Minor White and Paul Caponigro. Paul is 80 years old now. This past October 12th Paul worked with Ron at a one day seminar he did for the North American Nature Photographers Association (NANPA). Rosenstock’s contribution was showing work by the masters of photography and talking about what they have taught him. In the 1960’s he had corresponded with Ansel Adams and was a student of Minor Whites in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. He has been a friend and colleague of Paul Caponigro for forty plus years. Paul was also a friend and student of Minor White, who had studied with Ansel Adams and Edward Weston. The traditions have been passed on to the next generation.
At the NANPA seminar, Paul read from his unpublished manuscripts regarding his feelings and method of photography. Rosenstock has a copy of that recording and will play part of this rarely heard recording at his talk to the Newport Photo Guild.
If you appreciate the fine art of photography and the tradition it comes from, you won’t want to miss his presentation November 20th at the Newport Photo Guild.
This promises to be an outstanding presentation. Please check the Photo Guild website for more information about Photo Guild happenings. www.newportphotoguild.org
