CCP Photo Club & Friends:
10 people met & took photos, walked slowly, exchanged technical info, met friends along the way, viewed some gallery images...... had a great time experimenting with photo techniques.... and good conversation!
B&W film (6 rolls!) T-Max 400.... digital in Monochrome mode with a yellow filter... digital, rapid fire, auto bracketing for HDR...... even some homeless dude joined the caravan: took a clear bottle, put it in the middle of second street glistening in the late afternoon brilliant sunlight.... stopped traffic & took photos with some sort of pocket sized device.
Man, you should have seen the scene! And the fabulous, late afternoon, low winter sun!!!
A splendid time was had by all attendees.......
We hope you can join with us for the next photo event.
Here's some photos from 2.3.12 in old city.
ENJOY!
