New York City Audubon Photo Committee Gets a New Leader--Me!

I have recently agreed to become the new head of New York City Audubon's Photography Committee. Thanks to Steve Feingold for his many hears of dedicated service.

My first official act as leader of the group is to change our name to New York City Audubon Photography Special Interest group or PhotoSIG for short. Hopefully, there will be other special interest groups forming so one thing the name does is create a naming convention. Besides, it's a great icebreaker, "PhotoSIG, what's that?"

I am in the process of creating programming for the coming year. I hope to offer a mix of educational programming that includes presentations on how to accomplish certain tasks or solve certain problems (especially as they relate to the digital workflow.)

I have also created a Web site where members can exchange information and maintain a personal photo gallery. The site also has a calendar of events, news feeds, and links to interesting sites. Check the Web site for information about upcoming events and seminars. Access to the site is free to NYC Audubon members but you must register on the site so we can verify your membership.
