Photo Editing

On this relaxed, social photo walk, we will explore the City's contrasting architecture in the afternoon sun. Beginners and experienced photographers are all welcome. * **The Barbican Centre:** We begin at this iconic brutalist playground, working with its maze of highwalks, geometric lines, textures, and pockets of light. * **St. Paul’s & One New Change:** Next, we'll capture various vantage points of the famous cathedral and shoot a mix of modern and old architecture. * **The Northbank Path:** Heading toward our final stop, we’ll take this quieter, less-frequented alternative to the Southbank for scenic cityscape views of the Shard and Tower Bridge. * **St. Dunstan in the East:** We’ll finish at this bombed ruined church garden—a secret gothic oasis in the middle of the city where nature has overtaken the architecture, offering incredible light filtering through the ruins and makes for stunning creative photographs. Whether you love to shoot architecture, candid street scenes, or just experiment with the light creatively, there will be plenty to work with. Please note that this is not a teaching workshop event. However, if you have any street photography questions or need advice during the walk please feel free ask me. As an extra bonus I've created a Street Photography Cheat-Sheet available for free download for members. Optional. We will end the photo walk at a pub or cafe for a quick drink for those who wish to regroup socially post walk. **What to Bring** * **Camera Kit:** Any camera or smartphone.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus in 2024, this is the perfect place to kick off our Summer of Ice Cream and grab a sweet treat after the show! Their menu features an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, and more! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php) PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
