SPOTLIGHT – Joyce Goldberg – Sept thru Oct 2016

I’m a relative newcomer to the field of photography.  My first digital camera was a Panasonic point-and-shoot, which I chose because it had a 6x zoom, whereas most other point-and-shoots of the era had only 3x.  I liked digital so much that I never used my Minolta SLR again.  In 2012 I got my Canon T2i/550D, which is the camera that I use today.  And then of course there’s the iPhone.

I joined the CPC toward the end of the 2013-14 season, and not only have I learned a lot, but I’ve become aware of just how much more there is to learn.  I like taking photos of flowers and wildlife, although recently I’ve enjoyed landscape photography as well.  I’d like to get better at taking portraits and I enjoy photographing children.  For post-processing I’ve been using Apple Photos and am in the process of learning how to use Elements.  I’ve also been having fun lately using Topaz Impression.
