The Main Topics
Post-Lockdown
The first post-pandemic photowalk will have to wait a little longer, it should be possible in June. We will also arrange some daily trips to allow us to explore a little more this gorgeous Switzerland with our cameras and amazing group. Got any ideas and tips of where we should go next? Shoot me a message and we will make it happen!
Free Knowledge
Magnum Photographers made talks between pairs of their amazing image snappers available for free.
MAGNUM PHOTOS photographers I recommend to have a look: Christopher Anderson – Moises Saman – Alex Majoli – Paolo Pellegrin – Alec Soth – Constantine Manos
Lino Sprizzi 1956lino
For the street photographers lovers I strongly recommend: Garry Winongrand – Joel Meyerowitz – Constantine Manos

Edit Each Other’s Photos
Jan, Lino and I sent some images for the group so they would do their edits and transform our creations as they saw fit. You can see the gallery on our Facebook Group
Master Lino introduced us to some presets from Thorsten Von Overgaard, you can find them on TvO.
As the group showed interest, I’ll demo next week the software/plugin I used to repair the out-of-focus area and that can also be used against camera shake.
The Power of Colour Masks
After last weeks Luminosity Mask presentation from Jan Aidel, we saw a complementary way to limit the effects of edits based on this simple and quick technique, yet very powerful and timesaving.
This technique adds to the Luminosity Mask and is a great way to help refine selections and make very localized edits and speed up your post-processing.
Photo CHallenge
Installment #4 is on and waiting for your photos, upload them and see the gallery here.
The CHallenge was extended until mid June but don’t just wait until the last minute, let us see your images soon!

This technique adds to the Luminosity Mask and is a great way to help refine selections and make very localized edits.
Do you have something to suggest for our discussions? Please shoot me a message and we will make that happen.
Thanks to all who participated, I always finish our CHats with new energy and ideas!
