Field Trip to New York City on Saturday, September 14.

Join members for a field trip to New York City on Saturday Sept 14th. We will meet at 2pm at the I84 exit 9 park and ride and carpool to the DUMBO (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass) area. We will get an early dinner then head out to shoot in the area. Bring your camera, and a variety of lenses and tripod if you have them. A shutter release will also be advised for long exposures (or use your camera’s timer).

This will be a great opportunity to get shots for the September Assigned Subject of “Bridges” and the Monthly Challenge “City Lights”. Each person will be responsible for meal expenses and should be willing to chip in to drivers for gas, tolls and parking.

To get a headcount, please RSVP to Sandy Schill at Flagpole's Private Meetup Forum at https://flagpolephotographers.com/meetup/meetups/new-york-city-trip-saturday-sep-14-bridges-and-city-lights/ or Flagpole's Facebook Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/177952625554933/
