The Group organises occasional outings where members can share their expertise in practical situations.
Online Forum
Members of the group have full access to the CMPG Website. This forum enables members to keep in contact between meetings and discuss any matters concerning photography. There are discussion boards for general matters, Photoshop editing, local photo opportunities, equipment and a classifieds section for buying and selling gear and everyone in the Group has their own online gallery to showcase their pictures.
It’s a great way to get in contact with other photography enthusiasts in Chiang Mai.

are regular workshops on the use of Adobe Photoshop with sessions catering for
both beginners and advanced users.

Storage and Workflow
Using digital cameras can quickly result in a collection of thousands of images but how do you store them safely and find the pictures you need? This topic comes up frequently and members can give advice on how best to save and organise images on your computer and the safest way to back them up so you don't lose them if your hard drive fails
