Tonight's field trip was to capture images for a time-lapse as we learned about in this month's meeting. If you haven't been, you need to go to this beautiful park. It was my first time and I was very pleased. But don't expect to stay long past sunset. The parks' security were out to sush us out of the park promptly at sunset. Below are a few images I snuck out of the timelapse. I'll attach the video later.
June 2018 Back to Basics/Sunset at Mahogany Hammock
This 'back to basics' field trip, led by Barbara Livieri, was to give our beginner photographers some exercises in aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. We had one beginner show up and we all learned a lot. Number 1, never back out because of weather. This day looked horrible and we were treated with a spectacular sunset. Number 2, always know your camera. Know the knobs and what they do, even if you don't understand it. and 3, just relax and enjoy nature and each other's company. It was a great night.

April 2018 Sweet Bay Pond Field Trip
The April Sweet Bay Pond Sunrise trip was supposed to be a Cypress Dome Walk. Unfortunately, the water was nowhere to be found. Rainy season hadn't started yet so our plans switched from swamp walk to sunrise shoot. A bit if swamp walking was done to get to this spot but they were all treated with a great view.
