Flagpole Photographers started our new season with a great hands-on opportunity for everyone to practice taking photos of “water” in many ways. It helped everyone learn how to better use their cameras in new and unique ways.
Melissa excelled in program organization and volunteer coordination for the four hands-on opportunities:
- Photographing Falling Water Droplets
- Splash Photography
- Fog Photography
- Shooting Through Water Droplets on Glass
And, to add a delightful touch, the meeting began with some delectable ice cream from Newtown’s own Ferris Acres Creamery.
