This meeting will have us discussing street shooting and the upcoming Hops on High event. Now I know we have discussed street shooting before, but we'll add some more context to this one, and get you aspiring street shooters ready to go out and shoot in the middle of the road!

The Hops on High event closes off High Street for one day, featuring a collection of artists, vendors, and musicians throughout the day. This is the perfect opportunity to get out and hone your street shooting skills. Plus, at next month's meeting, you'll get a chance to show off your best images!

Tim Neumann has been involved in all facets of photography for over four decades, from the film days when long evenings in the darkroom were the norm to the digital era where computers have replaced the darkroom. An avid study of all things technical, Tim has fully embraced the digital era and is prepared to teach it easily to those desiring to take their skills to the next level.

“It’s interesting to me how much the technology has changed in the marketplace, yet the underpinnings of making a great image remain the same.” Tim brings this philosophy with him as he helps those around him realize and capture unique and keepsake images of their own. “With the ubiquitous availability of high-quality photo printing, we are now seeing a revival of the idea of creating fine art productions. It’s my goal to help anyone who wants to realize that fine art vision, make that a reality.”

"The digital age has truly brought high-end image editing to the masses. For the want of a decently powered computer, you now can make edits and compositions that were once only the purview of the master darkroom technician. Thinking about what Ansel Adams once said about the negative being the score and the print being the performance, I think of the digital editing process as being 50% of the resulting image."

Tim has been teaching all aspects of imaging for over two decades, guiding new and seasoned photographers alike to images they previously had not imagined. “You know, a genuinely compelling image is an amalgamation of equipment, technical mastery, artistic vision, timing, and a dose of luck.
