A former member of Livingston Camera Club returns to tell about the sort of flying he does and to show some of the photographs he takes from the air.  Alan will explain some of the methods he uses for getting good results in aerial photography and shows Scotland from a different perspective.

Bob will share his experience in how to get prints that match what you see on the monitor.  He will talk about how to get better prints through the colour setup of your monitor and printer, understanding the settings on your camera and colour space.  There will also be a tutorial on how to use the Club’s Spyder Pro system to calibrate your monitor.
