His photography journey began in middle school with his dad&#8217;s Minolta SRT-101.&nbsp;He shot primarily black-and-white film through&nbsp;high school and into college, where he was a photographer and photo editor for his college yearbook.&nbsp;He set photography aside for a few years after college and later made the move to digital photography about 20 years ago to document and share his kids&#8217; activities and adventures with family members.&nbsp;About 10 years&nbsp;ago, Gary began to return to photography as a hobby, shooting wherever family activities and vacations took him.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with many digital photographers, Gary did a majority of his processing using Adobe Lightroom.&nbsp;Following an Adobe price increase around 2020, Gary began looking for subscription-free processing options and came across DxO PhotoLab and related products.&nbsp;DxO&#8217;s excellent denoising capabilities filled a need when processing high-school sports photos, with DxO&#8217;s purchase of the Nik Collection tools also contributing to Gary&#8217;s decision to give DxO a try.&nbsp;Five years later, Gary is a happy&nbsp;user of DxO PhotoLab and Nik Collection tools and administers a 3800-member Facebook group for DxO users.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this Member&#8217;s Forum, Gary will provide an introduction to DxO&#8217;s PhotoLab, PureRaw, and Nik Collection software tools.&nbsp;He will also provide a discount code should anyone be interested in purchasing DxO software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum1_DSC_2301_Nik_Nik_1-1-1.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot-1024x614.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum2_PhotoLab-Screenshot.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot-1024x614.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/RubinForum3_SilverEfex-Screenshot.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bio\/Description: Gary Rubin is a 2nd-year member of NPVS.
