Today we uploaded pictures of our activities in Romania to EVS romanian website: http://clusters.evsromania.ro/photos/
Before that we made pictures smaller 800MB, because then its quicker to upload and pictures will open more quicker on the website.
NB!! You can upload pictures only with Firefox, with IE it dosent work!
Also we started to collect volunteers pictures of activities in here.

For next time volunteers have to make picture of Romanian nature, as it is autumn we can see lots of beautiful colors in outside. And another topic is Dacia. To make picture of Dacia, Romanian popular car :) So,

First workshop

I will talk about our goals and plans. Also we collect the ideas, what volunteers want to do.
I will introduce the rules of workshop (what happens if you cant come) and blog rules (posting pictures, links, information).

At the moment we have 5 people who will take a part of this workshop:
Marina, Kadi, Esther, Ilya and Anastasia.

They all have got invitations to post comments, links and photos on the blog.
What concerns about photo workshop, I believe that also volunteers who are in communities can participate in it.
I will post all information what we talked about this workshop and homeworks on this blog. Also you can find links what you need for making the good picture. So, for instance if I will give homework to make a picture of other volunteer. Everybody can do it and publish on this blog. Then we can comment how good is it and what should be different: light, cutting, position, colors.

For first workshop you have to take with you photo camera and it would be nice, if you can take also laptop.
Also I would like you to take with your all pictures what you have already done in Romania!
