    Wildlife and Nature SIG Wednesdays @ 9:30am


    Facilitators: Craig Zimmerman & Ron Friesz

    Location: Large Classroom

    Date: Wednesdays @ 9:30 am


    Winter Schedule (Oct-April): every Wednesday at 9:30 am

    Summer Schedule (May-Sept): first and third Wednesday at 9:30 am

    The Wildlife and Nature SIG shares photos with club members that are interested in the great outdoors. Our group ranges from highly skilled photographers to beginners shopping for a camera.  Most of us fall somewhere in the middle. Some photos are straight out of the camera while other pics have been edited with great skill.

    Our discussions might cover photographic techniques, editing software, cameras and equipment or where to go to get a great shot. We suggest bringing about 5 photos you have taken, on a USB drive in a JPEG format. We ask that you tell the group if you have taken a photo in the wild or at the zoo. The group would also like to know how much editing was done to the photo being shown. You are not required to show photos.

    Come join us for some fun! Learn from your fellow club members in a friendly supportive environment. And don't forget to bring some photos to share.

    There will be no Zoom meetings.

    You must be a member of GVR and the GVR Photography Club to attend this event.

    Odaiko Sonora Taiko Drums Behind-the-Scenes - Saturday 09/26/2026

    Trip Cost: $15

    Please Note: Do not wear perfumes, scented lotions or glitter since the studio is a glitter- and scent-free space.

    Odaiko Sonora is Tucson's taiko, or Japanese ensemble drumming group. Serving southern AZ since May 2002, Odaiko Sonora is dedicated to increasing familiarity with and understanding of taiko in our community. They do this each year through classes and master workshops, performances, school residencies, team building workshops and by producing concerts that include internationally acclaimed taiko artists. Learn more about Odaiko Sonora here. 

    Taiko is most beautiful when players are performing in unison, with musicality and proper technique, striving for accuracy and focus. With over 60 appearances — for over 150,000 people each year — these players are committed to taiko as a performing art form. Performances vary from outdoor festivals to private parties to staged theatrical productions. Dedication, rigorous training, creative contribution, flexibility and a great attitude define these players. As with most things, practice makes perfect!

    We’ll have a rare opportunity to observe, photograph and video one of Odaiko Sonora’s Community Group practice sessions. Their Community Group is for players who wish to work together as a group to increase skill levels, expand their repertoire, and work towards community performances 3–5 times a year. Check out this YouTube video to get an idea of the treat that’s in store for you. 

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 7:00 AM for carpooling, departure at 7:30 AM. Please do not wear perfumes, scented lotions or glitter since the studio is a glitter- and scent-free space. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge if you have one. For those carpooling, $5.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    We’ll drive to the RiP Factory located at 1013 South Tyndall Avenue in Tucson for the 8:30 AM practice session. To avoid distracting the performers, flash photography is not allowed. Tripods are fine provided they can be moved to ensure performers can access personal items/water bottles during breaks. The session should end at 10:30 AM, followed by a short Q&A session where you’re invited to ask about the instruments and the taiko art form.

    Following the practice session, participants are invited to an optional no-host lunch – a teppanyaki (hibachi) dining experience involving a different kind of performance -- at Hana Tokyo, 5435 South Calle Santa Cruz, Suite #185 in Tucson (in the Tucson Spectrum Shopping Mall next to Harkins Theatres). Find more information about Hana Tokyo here.  

    Monica Parker will be the trip leader. For questions call Monica at 618 304-1164 or email at mparker582@aol.com. She will be disseminating more information to registered participants via e-mail as we get closer to the event. Please add your trip leader's email and phone number to your contact list so you don't miss out on any important updates.

    GVR requires that every person participating in the club's field trips must sign a waiver absolving GVR of any liability.  You will be required to sign the waiver at the Photography club before the trip departs if you haven't already done so.

    Kevin May and Todd Taylor, Moderators

    The Multimedia Special Interest Group meets in the Large Classroom at the GVR Photography Club in the Santa Rita Springs Social Center.

    During Winter (November through April) we will meet every Monday in the Large Classroom. There will be no Zoom for these Multimedia SIG meetings, however, meetings will be recorded and placed on our YouTube channel following the meeting. 

    During the Summer months (May through October) we will move to an every other Monday schedule. There will be no Zoom and no YouTube recordings for these meetings.

    A typical Multimedia SIG meeting lasts about one hour and members can share videos they have put together and get feedback and constructive suggestions on ways they can improve their videos. The group also helps work on issues that members might have with various image and video editing software.

    Besides all of that, we also have a lot of fun and laughs, so please join us!

    Center for Creative Photography (CCP) - Wednesday 10/07/2026

    Trip Cost: $10

    Founded in 1975 by photographer Ansel Adams and the University of Arizona’s then-president, Dr. John P. Schaefer, the Center for Creative Photography is the largest institution in North America devoted to the research and exhibition of photography. Beginning with the archives of five photographers—Ansel Adams, Wynn Bullock, Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and Frederick Sommer—today, the CCP stewards more than three hundred archival collections of photographers, scholars, galleries, authors, and organizations, complemented by unparalleled holdings of some 120,000 fine prints and an extensive oral history collection. 

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 9:00 AM for carpooling, departing at 9:15 AM. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge, if available. For those carpooling, $2.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    Upon arrival, we will be provided an overview of the Center's history, its mission statement, and a tour of their facilities. Following the tour, we'll explore CCP's brand new exhibit where we'll “meet” a menagerie of furry, finned, and feathered friends depicted across more than 100 photographs and archival objects from the CCP’s collection. Animality: 100 Years of Photographs features a wide range of photographic formats, a diverse group of photographers, and all manner of animals across a century of time.

    You're welcome to take photos in the gallery unless otherwise noted. For the safety of the works and to protect the copyright privileges of their creators, CCP asks that you please follow these guidelines:

    • Photographs are for personal use only and may not be published, sold, reproduced, transferred, distributed or commercially exploited in any manner whatsoever.
    • The use of flash or other supplemental light is not permitted.
    • Selfie sticks and tripods are prohibited.

    Following the visit to CCP, you're invited to a no-host lunch. Details will be provided later.

    Chiricahua National Monument Sunset & Night Sky - Saturday 10/10/2026

    Trip Cost: $10

    Chiricahua National Monument preserves towering rhyolite pinnacles, balanced rocks, and mountain landscapes shaped by volcanic forces in southeastern Arizona. Visitors explore scenic drives, hiking trails, and campgrounds beneath dark night skies - Chiricahua provides rich scenic views from all areas of the park. Rising between the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts, the monument supports diverse wildlife and protects a rich cultural history tied to Indigenous peoples, Apaches, Buffalo Soldiers, ranchers, and the Civilian Conservation Corps. See thousands of balanced rocks as you drive the 8 miles up to Massai Point, Echo Canyon, and Sugarloaf. Chiricahua is a premier birding area of the country.

    Chiricahua National Monument is officially certified as an International Dark Sky Park due to its exceptionally clear and dark night skies. The park sits far away from major city lights and light pollution, features clean air and low annual precipitation, with nearly 90% of the park designated as wilderness, all of which combined to create perfect conditions for stargazing. We've scheduled the trip during a New Moon phase with 0% illumination to take advantage of night sky photo opportunities.

    Learn more about Chiricahua National Monument here.

    October 10 offers a rare, perfect-alignment opportunity for capturing the Milky Way because it falls exactly on a New Moon. However, because October represents the absolute end of the Northern Hemisphere's Milky Way core season, our shooting window will be brief, shifting into a dramatic vertical orientation low on the southwest horizon right after twilight. 

    The plan is to do a late lunch/early dinner in Willcox, arrive at Chiricahua early enough to take in the park's amazing sunset, then set up and be ready to shoot the moment twilight fades. The (Milky Way's) galactic core will drop below the horizon quickly with the prime core visibility window lasting from 7:15 PM to 8:30 PM.

    Following our dark sky photography session, participants are urged to stay overnight at one of the hotels in Willcox rather than risk driving back to Green Valley in a fatigued state. Each participant is responsible for arranging his/her own lodging. Find links to Willcox-area lodging here.

    In the morning, you're free to return to Chiricahua to take in the park's unique features during daylight hours (no admission fee or pass is required), visit Apple Annie's, or check out other Willcox-area attractions on your own before returning to Green Valley.

    Important Note: Night sky photography etiquette involves respecting the darkness, preserving other people's night vision, and minimizing disruption in natural areas. Use of red lights (headlamps and flashlights), avoiding random shining, warning others before using a light, giving others space to set up, and maintaining a quiet environment by keeping your voice low and turning off camera and smartphone sounds are just a few of the tips necessary for a fun and productive night sky photo shoot. We plan to hold a Milky Way/night sky photography refresher class before the trip -- details will follow via email.

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 12:15 PM for carpooling, departing at 12:30 PM. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes, and be sure to dress in layers. A hat, sunscreen and water are also recommended. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge, if available. For those carpooling, $25.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    Skydive Arizona: World Skydiving Championships - Tuesday 10/20/2026

    Trip Cost: $10

    The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) World Skydiving Championships 2026 will be held from October 17–24, 2026 at Skydive Arizona, bringing together the world’s top skydiving athletes to compete across Formation Skydiving, Artistic Events, Speed Skydiving, and Canopy Piloting disciplines.

    Founded in 1986, Skydive Arizona™ has become the world’s largest skydiving center. Spread across nearly 90 acres of pristine Sonoran Desert midway between Phoenix & Tucson, Skydive Arizona’s fleet can put up to 240 skydivers in the air at one time!

    Skydivers all over the world have recognized that Skydive Arizona™ is different from any other drop zone. Although close to major highways, there is vast, open desert all around, providing for ample landing zones. There are three well-maintained grass landing areas to make life easier on skydivers and their gear. Skydive Arizona™ has invested heavily in the sport of competitive skydiving and are proud to sponsor Arizona Airspeed — the winningest skydiving team in history. They've hosted every major world skydiving competition, and multiple world records have been set here.

    There's a set of bleachers where you can photograph parachutists coming into the main landing area which can be pretty exciting. There are also picnic tables and benches dispersed throughout the complex. If you want a guaranteed seat, you can bring a camping chair from home.

    Santa Theresa Tile Works - Tuesday 10/27/2026

    Trip Cost: $50

    How crafty are you?

    Join us for a tile-mosaic-making workshop at the Santa Theresa Tile Works where you'll create a beautiful one-of-a-kind tile mosaic project. The workshop also includes a tour of the facilities.

    Santa Theresa Tile Works makes brilliant, distinctive tile and mosaics that epitomize Tucson decorative style. Once you start noticing Santa Theresa tile, you'll begin to spot it all over town -- and across the nation. Santa Theresa Tile Works is a nonprofit organization that works to keep art accessible, rooted in place, and connected to the community. In 2016, the business was given to Imago Dei Middle School, a free private school for children from low-income families. Through collaborative ceramic art projects, public workshops, and creative learning opportunities, the organization generates earned revenue that sustains Santa Theresa Tile Works' ongoing work and directly supports the educational mission and programming of Imago Dei Middle School.

    Learn more about the Santa Theresa Tile Works here.

    Registration cost includes the price of a finished 4" wooden frame do-it-yourself mosaic. If you want to go with a different size or type of project, you'll just need to pay the difference at the Tile Works. Here's a copy of their price list. As noted, the price includes the frame, table or bench, tile, and setting and grouting for your do-it-yourself project.  You choose your frame, compose your mosaic, and pick your grout color. Santa Theresa Tile Works will set and grout your mosaic. The trip leader will pick up the completed projects from the Tile Works, bring them back to the Photography Club, and notify you when they are ready.

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 8:45 AM for carpooling, departing at 9:15 AM. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge, if available. For those carpooling, $5.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    Bird/Nature Photography: Rancho Santa Cruz/Santa Gertrudis Lane - Tuesday 11/03/2026

    Trip Cost: $10

    Rancho Santa Cruz and Santa Gertrudis Lane are excellent spots to see berry-eating birds as well as view birds bathing in the Santa Cruz River. There are many excellent birding and nature photo opportunities nearby. Located in a fertile green valley fed by the Santa Cruz River under a canopy of large Cottonwood trees, Rancho Santa Cruz sits at almost 4,000 feet elevation, and its climate is substantially cooler and wetter than Tucson or Phoenix. The National Audubon Society recognizes Rancho Santa Cruz as part of an Important Bird Area called the Upper Santa Cruz River. Best birding is from the parking area and walking the trails to the river. Some birds observed include the Cassin Kingbird, Ladder-Backed and Gila Woodpeckers, Vermillion Flycatcher, White Breasted Nuthatch, Raven, Turkey Vulture, Gray Hawk and Abert's Towhee.

    Santa Gertrudis Lane, once a major crossing of the Santa Cruz River, was closed to public traffic when Burlington Northern Railroad deemed the rail crossing on the east side of the river to be unsafe. The closing was a hardship for folks living in the hills above the river, but the lack of traffic created a peaceful sanctuary for birds and wildlife residing and migrating along the river. Santa Gertrudis Lane intersects with the Anza Trail at the Santa Cruz River. We’ll walk in the shaded riparian forest along the Santa Cruz River which is a fantastic location for three types of kingbirds (Cassin’s, Tropical, and noisy Thick-billed) along with a wide variety of other desert riparian species like Inca Dove, Gray Hawk, Yellow-billed Cuckoo, Bell’s Vireo, and Blue Grosbeak.

    Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Participants need to be comfortable walking on trails of mostly flat, uneven terrain.  A hat and water are suggested. If you have binoculars, you may want to bring them along. A small notebook and pen or pencil would be useful to record your sightings if you wish to do so.

    We'll meet at the Photography Club at 8:30 AM for carpooling. Due to limited parking at both sites, carpooling is encouraged. If you are going to carpool with someone, the minimum donation for gas should be $5.00. We will leave promptly at 8:45 for Rancho Santa Cruz/Santa Gertrudis Lane.

    Lunch details will be provided via email when we get closer to the event.

    Black & White SIG - Tuesdays @ 9:30 am


    Facilitator: Wendell Werner

    Location: Ansel Adams Room

    Date: Tuesdays at 9:30 am


    There will be NO SCHEDULED ZOOM meetings for these sessions, so come on out to the Club and join us!


    The Black & White Special Interest Group is a meeting of those club members who enjoy the special qualities of black & white (or more generally called “monochrome”) photography. Members bring their images for viewing and comments by the group. 

    Discussions on editing techniques, as well as on composition and lighting are also a part of the meeting.

    The question might be asked “Why are we interested in black and white images when even the basic point and shoot digital cameras can produce very good color photographs?”  The answer is: there are some images which have more visual impact when rendered in black and white. These images are those which use the interplay between light and shadows to emphasize texture or shapes within the composition. An example is shown above.

    Typically, the photographs shown at our SIG have been produced as color images in a digital camera and converted to black and white using one or more of the popular photo editing software packages.

    Photoshop/Lightroom SIG Wed @ 12:30 pm


    Facilitator: Al Crawford

    Location: Large Classroom

    Date: Wednesdays @ 12:30 pm (Summer)


    Group Overview and Objectives


    The Photoshop/Lightroom Special Interest Group (SIG) is a dedicated forum for photographers, editors, and digital artists who utilize Adobe’s industry-standard photography applications. The primary focus of this group is to explore Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom Classic, with a specific emphasis on navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) in image processing.


    As Adobe continues to integrate machine learning and generative AI into its Creative Cloud ecosystem, this SIG serves as a collaborative environment for members to learn, discuss, and master these new workflows. Sessions are designed to help users transition from traditional editing techniques to modern, AI-assisted methods that enhance creativity and optimize efficiency.

    Core Focus Areas

    1. New Feature Exploration
      Regular deep dives into the latest software updates for Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. Participants will learn how to implement newly released tools immediately into their post-processing workflows.

    2. AI-Driven Image Processing
      Comprehensive demonstrations of Adobe Sensei and Adobe Firefly technologies. Discussions will cover the practical applications of generative tools, including automated object removal, generative expansion, advanced neural filters, and intelligent upscaling.

    3. Workflow Optimization
      Strategies for utilizing AI to streamline tedious tasks. This includes leveraging assisted culling features, automated metadata tagging, and smart stacking in Lightroom Classic to drastically reduce the time spent between capture and final output.

    4. Advanced Masking and Selections
      Mastering AI-powered masking tools to make precise adjustments. Sessions will cover subject, sky, and background detection, as well as fine-tuned portrait enhancements like facial hair, clothing, and eye adjustments.

    5. Collaborative Problem Solving
      Open floor discussions where members can share their own techniques, ask troubleshooting questions, and evaluate the ethical and practical implications of AI in modern photography.

    This group is open to all users of Adobe photography applications who wish to stay at the forefront of digital editing technology. Whether you are looking to refine your catalog organization or master advanced generative composites, the Photoshop/Lightroom SIG provides the tools and community support to elevate your craft.

    Sonoran Glass School - Tuesday 11/17/2026

    Trip Cost: $24

    Discover the magic of glass art at the Sonoran Glass School (SGS).

    Founded in 2001 at the storied Philabaum Glass Studio (now Philabaum Glass Gallery), Sonoran Glass School began as the dream of a small group of local glass artists. Tom Philabaum and Dave Klein formed the Sonoran Art Foundation, Inc. They quickly outgrew their existing studio space and acquired a rusty, closed-down tire station in one of Tucson’s oldest barrios south of downtown and over 20 years later is still going strong.  Today, they’re the only full-service, nonprofit glass arts education organization in the desert Southwest. SGS is dedicated to inspiring people of all ages to discover the wonder of glass art.

    Learn more about the Sonoran Glass School here.

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 8:45 AM for carpooling, departing at 9:15 AM. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge, if available. For those carpooling, $5.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    Upon arrival, we'll be provided a guided tour that features an exploration through the gallery, the studios, and the Sculpture Garden. We'll be shown the tools utilized in each studio and examples of the kind of glass art pieces produced in these shops. with an exciting glassblowing demonstration at the end.

    The school features a small gallery offering items for purchase -- something to think about this close to the holidays.

    A no-host lunch will follow the tour -- details will be provided to participants via email.

    Gammons Gulch Movie Set and Museum AND Forever Home Donkey Rescue & Sanctuary - Thursday 11/19/2026

    Trip Cost $30

    Gammons Gulch.  We'll take a trip back in time to the days of the old west as you walk down the streets of an old west town. 

    Gammons Gulch, a western town and movie set, was built by Jay and Joanne Gammons. It includes a saloon, blacksmith shop, jail, assay office, church, gallows, barber shop, and much more. The buildings are not just facades; they are actual buildings with vintage furniture, dishes, lightning, tools, etc. from the territorial era.  It is truly a museum. 

    Gammons Gulch has served as a setting for many western movies, western-themed weddings and other events, with the surroundings and settings meeting the specifications of the actual decor of the time. A little imagination is all you need to complete this memorable "step back in time" experience. You'll marvel at the detail and authenticity that went into the building of this movie set and museum.

    We'll start with a self-guided tour of the town after which you'll be able to take photos of the interior and exterior settings at your leisure. Pictures may be taken for personal use only.

    Note: Due to lack of availability, western actors will not be a part of the field trip this year.

    There is no food served at Gammons Gulch so bring water and a lunch.  You can eat lunch in the saloon or outside in a nice picnic area. 

    Forever Home Donkey Rescue and Sanctuary.  After lunch we will take a 2–3-minute drive to Forever Home. The Sanctuary has provided a loving home for donkeys since 1998. Many of these intelligent & beautiful animals have health issues because of neglect in their past. Others are in their 20s and 30s, requiring extra care and special feeds to keep them healthy.

    The donkeys are roaming on 10 acres, and you can take pictures to your heart's content. If the donkeys don't want to come see you, you can walk within the Sanctuary to see them. If you have trouble walking, the Sanctuary will take you to them on a four-wheeler bike. Caretakers will be available to answer any questions and tell you the donkeys' stories--if you could understand what the donkeys have to say. The tour will last about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. We expect to leave the Donkey Sanctuary at approximately 3:00 PM for our return to Green Valley.

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 8:15 AM for carpooling, departing at 8:30 AM. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and closed-toed shoes (no sandals). A brimmed hat, sunscreen and water are also highly recommended. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge, if available. For those carpooling, $15.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver. 

    Danny Valenzuela will be our trip leader. Contact Danny at 602-568-5759 or email at dvsundevil@gmail.com with any questions. He will be disseminating more information to registered participants via e-mail as we get closer to the event. Please add your trip leader's email and phone number to your contact list so you don't miss out on any important updates.

    Winterhaven Festival by Party Bike - Saturday 12/12/2026

    Trip Cost $40

    Please sign up no later than October 15th so we can reserve the party bikes -- they fill up quickly.

    Depending on your response, we may schedule a second Winterhaven Festival by Party Bike field trip this season. Be sure to get yourself on the wait list even if this trip fills up -- that will help us determine if a second trip is needed.

    Since 1949 the Winterhaven Festival of Lights has grown to become a Tucson Tradition and one of the longest running festivals of its kind in the country. The Festival of Lights celebrates the holiday season in Tucson and is visited by hundreds of thousands of people from all over southern Arizona. In the past, one day was set aside to allow people to drive through the neighborhood, but there are no drive-through dates this year. Your choices are limited. You can walk or you can take a trolley tour.

    Or better yet, you can take a pedal-powered group bike - the “funnest” way to experience the amazing Winterhaven Festival of Lights! We’ll pedal a 14-passenger party bike on a 45-minute Winterhaven ride and enjoy the festival’s sights while our captain steers. LED lights and pop Christmas music will provide a great ambiance for the ride. The captain will make one to two stops inside the festival so we can get a closer look at the displays and take photos. And yes, you do have to pedal but the bike has a pedal-assist motor so it’s easier than it looks. Check out a short video about the Winterhaven Festival and the Arizona Party Bike here.

    Additional information about the Winterhaven Festival of Lights is available here.

    We’ll meet at the Photography Club at 2:30 PM for carpooling, departure at 3:00 PM. Dress warmly and wear comfortable close-toed shoes. Please wear your GVR Photography Club or Camera Club badge if you have one. For those carpooling, $5.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

    Prior to the party bike tour, participants are invited to an optional no-host dinner at Shooters, located at 3115 East Prince Road in Tucson. Arizona Party Bikes will pick us up at Shooters. Details will be provided once the reservation is confirmed.

    Tom Parker will be our trip leader. Contact Tom at 618-304-1456 or email at tparker324@aol.com with any questions. He will be disseminating more information to registered participants via e-mail as we get closer to the event. Please add your trip leader's email and phone number to your contact list so you don't miss out on any important updates.

    GVR requires that every person participating in the club's field trips must sign a waiver absolving GVR of any liability.  You will be required to sign the waiver at the Photography club before the trip departs if you haven't already done so.
