The “Good Locations by Nikonians” iPhone application enables you to take images of locations, to automatically tag them with their geographic location (GPS data), to rate and to share them with other photographers. A captured location can automatically be published to Nikonians, Facebook and Twitter.

The February competition will be held on the 2nd Monday of the month in February, 2/8/10, instead of the normal 3rd Monday of the month. This doesn’t leave a lot of time for getting your images in, so start planning early. The deadline for submissions will be Wednesday, 2/3/10.
P.S. – This month’s Specified Topic is “Creative Camera Techniques”.
Just a reminder to get those images in for the upcoming critique session. If you’d like one of your images critiqued, please send it to the submission email address with the subject – Critique Session.
Details from this month’s Slide-O-Gram…….
WORKSHOP: “CRITIQUE / LEARNING SESSION”
Monday January 25, 2010 MODERATOR: Olive Weingart, APSA, HonNEC
Members have asked for more critiques so that they may learn what may be done to improve their images. In an attempt to meet club members’ wishes, a critique workshop has been scheduled. Bring prints or slides with you; or have an electronic image sent to the competition mailbox. Due to time constraints, only one image per person will be “critiqued.” So, come and learn how to improve your images.
Every participant will get a chance during the evening to critique and share in understanding why a particular image received its high or low score.
Please come one and all (new and “old” members alike). It should prove to be an evening of getting acquainted, learning, and just good fun. Let’s make it an evening to remember by helping and sharing our favorite hobby with each other.
Listed below are the entries for the January competition being held Monday, 1/18/10. Please let me know as soon as possible, by sending an email to the submission address, if you see any errors with your entries. No new entries will be accepted at this time!

Just a friendly reminder – the cutoff for submitting digital images for the January competition is tonight. So, if you plan on competing, get those images in now! 
The deadline for entering digital images for the January competition is this Monday, 1/11/10, however I generally give everyone a couple of grace days so I’ll accept images until 11:59:59 P.M. on Wednesday, 1/13/10.
There will be absolutely no images accepted after that deadline – no exception.
On Wednesday, January 20, at 7:00 pm there will be a program at the Elizabeth Park Pond House entitled “Garden Photography, Finding Your Creative Eye.” The speaker is Gay Ayers from Farmington, who is described as a “photographer, artist and collector”. It is sponsored by Friends of Elizabeth Park. The admission fee is $10.
