Nathan Whalen Speaks…To Whidbey Island Camera Club
Nathan, a staff reporter for the Whidbey News Times, spoke of the who, what, when and where requirements of today’s fast-paced newspaper world. He mentioned the need for brevity, fresh ideas, meeting deadlines and the technology needed to remain competitive in our media saturated community. Our animated storyteller placed us in the driver’s seat as he reenacted crime scenes, auto accidents, and human interest stories. Not to leave followers hanging, he answered questions on practical matters; such as, dealing with copyright issues and obtaining public releases, digital files size and contact info. Even the subjective details of how to select an appropriate image for publication were discussed.
What goes into the makings of today’s newspaperman? Our man Nathan Whalen is the Whidbey News standard.
Nathan accepts thank you gift basket of persimmons from WICC member Edna Henderson.
Thank you Nathan for supporting WICC. You will always be our honored guest.

Lavender Wind Farm’s 4th Annual Festival
Five members of the Whidbey Island Camera Club supported the Lavender Wind Farm’s 4th Annual Festival last weekend. The winds were slight and the rain just enough to send us shivering for cover. The music was exceptional and food deliciosa. We learned how to make lemonade in a fragile economy... Admittedly, we didn’t make much money but we shared the comradery of canopy pitching and general company keeping. We caught a glimpse of what it means to be a working artist and why so many artists keep the day job.

Composition
One thing that makes a photo attractive to a viewer is finding new or unexpected elements as the eyes wander over the image. Paying attention to composition is a way to make your photo attractive.
Photos communicate a message. Ask yourself, what do I want to communicate? Paying attention to composition assures that your message will be clear.
