Welcome to the Rocky Mountain Photography Club web site. We are a loosely knit group of photography enthusiasts who meet to share our photos, our knowledge and just have fun.

We are currently revising our site, so some things are not complete. For example, our gallery area will contain many more photographers in the near future.  The Instruction corner will have more helpful instruction pages providing editing and photographic hints.  While most of our work is with still photographs, we will sometimes include video hints and samples.

Here's a big thank you to Kathy Eyster for our January program about converting color images to black and white.  If you did not take notes or were not able to attend, please email Kathy at kathy@kathyeyster.com, and she will send you a PDF file of what she discussed. As a follow-up for this month's assignment, practice converting some color photos to black and white using any of the procedures that Kathy discussed (or a method of your own that you use). For next month's meeting bring the color version and the black and white version of three different photos: one
people shot, one landscape shot, and a third shot of your choosing.  We'll discuss how you converted the photos, and what additional questions or issues that anyone may have.  Happy shooting!

Our meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month in the small meeting room of the Missoula Public Library. Meetings begin at 6:30 P.M. and last about 2 hours. We have to have the room back to normal and be out before the library closes. The next meeting is Wednesday, February 1.

We encourage you to bring photos to the meetings, even if you're not yet an official member.

(Note: If you're bringing digital photos, please use JPEG format for ease of display. Try to keep the images under 2MB for speed of display. Be sure NOT to reduce the size and replace your larger file. Save to a separate location for safety. Please bring images on a USB device, preferably a "thumb drive". We can read a variety of devices but the thumb drive seems most popular. Also, for convenience, please put your images in a folder on your thumb drive with your first name and initial of last name as the name of the folder. It will speed things up during the meeting.)

Everyone is invited.

It's never too late to renew our memberships or become a member. Please bring money to the meeting, $25.00/YR. Dues pay for club selected activities and our web site.
