Hi everyone,

I just want to wish everyone a wonderful and joyous holiday season and all the best in the new year.

I also want to remind everyone that the next camera club meeting will be on January 4 between 7 and 9 PM in the Magna room of the Aurora public library. We usually meet in the Lebovic room but for this meeting we will be in the Magna room as it will provide more area for the hands-on activity which we have planned.

Which brings me to the agenda of the next meeting. Basically we are going to have a session where you will learn how to photograph portraits. I will send you more details closer to the meeting, but I will tell you right now that for this activity you will need to bring your camera as well as a fully charged battery.

On a final note I would like to announce that the APL camera club's website has been updated with a brand-new look and a number of added features. Please take a look at it and email me if you encounter any bugs or issues. The plan is to use the website a lot more in the future. To access the site please use the following URL:

On behalf of myself and the members of the steering committee be well, have a wonderful holiday, and we're looking forward to seeing you all in the new year.
