2 Michaels s Camera s Exhibition. As you all know we have been invited to exhibit at Michaels again this year following our very successful one last year. The cost for each member who would like to participate has not been settled on as yet due to many options we have but we will be keeping the costs as low as possible and the quality as high as possible. We would like to get the ball rolling by everyone submitting 1 or 2 digital files of photos they would like to exhibit so we can gauge interest and this will also help with the cost structure if we know the level of participation. Do not resize your files as in competition entries just bring them in on a stick and give them to Sonya who is kindly directing the exhibition this year. Its a thrill to see your work on display, especially in the gallery space at Michaels and its great exposure for the club. We don't have a lot of time so please let s really make this a great event. 2
