June 14 was a busy Sunday for the FPPF with five simultaneous events going on: a one-day Photoshop class with some 20 doctors, two Basic Photography workshops, one Advanced workshop and an out-of-town seminar in San Fernando, Pampanga. Project Director Lito Beltran happily attended to all of these events – one at a time, of course.
The one-day Practical Digital Darkroom (with Photoshop CS3) was for the specialist doctors – all surgeons – who are members of the SILIP camera club. They call themselves “mga Siruhano sa Ihi Laging Interesado sa Paglitrato,” SILIP, for short, headed by their president, Dr. Nonoy Panganiban.
The Photoshop CS3 seminar with the doctors was sponsored by BIOMEDIS Prozelax, with company executives Froilan Llanore and Mylene Orense also attending the workshop.
The good doctors huddled at the computer for the very delicate image extraction operation in Photoshop. In background is Mrs. Eduviges Y. Huang, FPPF chairperson, attending to the surgeons.

Rounding out Sunday’s activities were the two regular Basic Photography workshops – one at FEMII and the other at the FPPF Art Chamber in Fort Santiago – and the Advance Photography workshop at the FPPF Studio, all making for a hectic but happy day at the FPPF.
