Photo Walk About – Dec. 21st, 6pm

Our education Night will take place downtown. We will start earlier at 6pm and meet at the Haul parking lot on H street between 5th and 6th. Take some time before Wed. to think of a camera setting or mode or lens or focal length you’d like to explore. Try out something new is the challenge as we stroll the festive downtown streets. Hot chocolate or beer afterwards??, sounds good to me!
