PPSO members,

Hopefully you all had great times during the holidays. But now, like the rest, its time to focus on our businesses. What better time to invest, than spending time learining about the new products and services being offered to photographers at the Mid East States Photographers Convention Feb 25 - 28th at the Dayton Convention Center.

      I hope many of you will be able to enter your work in the print competition.  Also, many of us will be needed as volunteers to help with various functions.  The tradeshow looks like a sell-out.  Be sure to send your registration in to the PPO office, and bring your spouses. 

      Our February guest speaker is Michael Ayers from Lima area.  Michael will be speaking on digital workflow.  Some of Michaels titles include MPA, PPA Certified, M. Phot. Cr., API, APPO, CPP, PFA, ALPE, and International Photographer of the year 2001.  His web page can be accessed at www.TheAyers.com   

We are pleased to have such a high caliber speaker to our local group.  Michael is sponsored by Fujifilm. 

Also, don't forget that we will be meeting this month at our new meeting place, Chantrell's in Springboro.

See you at the February 7 meeting.

Wes Smith, CPP, PPA Cert. President PPSO 2005
