X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>With over 60 years of photography experien
 ce\, Paul has discovered many "secrets" that everyone can unlock so that t
 aking and sharing photos is &ldquo\;more rewarding and less boring&rdquo\;
 .&nbsp\; In this program\, Paul will share tips on how to proceed from tak
 ing snapshots to producing art that we will be eager to share\, and that p
 eople are anxious to view.&nbsp\; Some of the tips include:</p>\n<ul>\n<li
 >Selecting equipment</li>\n<li>Evaluating locations</li>\n<li>Basic compos
 ition</li>\n<li>Lighting</li>\n<li>Storytelling</li>\n<li>Sharing your pho
 tos</li>\n<li>Etiquette\, and more.&nbsp\;</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Paul will also 
 translate the technical language so that concepts such as &ldquo\;depth of
  field\,&rdquo\; "aperture"\, "ASA"\, etc. are easier to understand and ma
 nipulate. &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>This session will be especially interesting to t
 he new or casual photographer.&nbsp\; Although serious hobby photographers
  will know many of the topics\, it is sometimes useful to be &ldquo\;remin
 ded&rdquo\; of the basics.&nbsp\;</p>\n<hr />\n<p><strong>Paul H Mather</s
