What do I learn from this photo at Braddell Heights Advanced online meeting?
Angela, the President, top left, is holding her bee soft toy to remind you that she is busy as a bee.
She is wearing a collared white shirt to frame her face (or a dickey, or false shirt front) and must remember to look in the mirror she keeps beside the laptop at online meetings to be sure the collar is straight.
Ban Peng is up close. I see the chat box hand. I had not realised how the hand was visible to sit beside your photo in the mosaic picture of a group. Another discovery which I have learned from him is that you can raise the hand for a photo which draws attention to your picture, identify yourself in a crowd, and show support for the meeting and organizers.
Next we have Sam. Thank you to Sam for supporting our club meeting.
The person taking the photo must shout 'one two three so that you know when the picture is being taken. That ensures the audience can sit still to prevent photo blur and keep your hands away from the screen.
Kin Ng - beaming. If you have big teeth show them.
Yudi, of learncool.sg. thanks for supporting up. Typically Singaporean, wearing glasses, looks academic.
Mike, despite being from China, has a photo of San Francisco, which reflects either the developers of Zoom and Manycam or their audience or the best photo they had at the time.
Jun Xian is making a hand sign, and has his books on display and some photos. His tee shirt matches the wall. Emphasizes his face.
Lim Tong Lee gives us a double thumbs up but wears a mask to look mysterious.
Jeff is hidden. Doing what?
1 He could be eavesdropping our meeting whilst being active at a work or social meeting.
2 Having dinner alone or with family. watching us surreptitiously on a mobile.
3 Popped out to the toilet, or doing something even more exciting which I will leave to your vivid imagination.
We have only 9 in this photo although 13 were at the meeting. You can make a meeting look small or large by getting your family of four to all log on from different mobiles during a meeting.
You might miss out if you let people go for a break and then try to take a photo.
What a lot you learn from just a photo and our analysis.
