Next Meeting: Thursday May 8th

Our next meeting will be on May 8th at the school. We are looking forward to gaining back some former members from the girls soccer team. We will be conducting another scavenger hunt, reviewing photos, getting a new assignment, and discussing the whereabouts and time of our next photowalk (as well as the plan for our summer sessions).

Photowalk Postponed another week

Due to several issues surrounding schedules and lack of notification time, we will be postponing our photo club meeting until Thursday April 17th. Barring poor weather, we will be hosting the planned photowalk at Shank Park. Otherwise, we will have an indoor activity planned here at the school. If you are planning to attend the photowalk, please make sure that you get a permission slip.

Shank Park Photowalk Permission Slip

You must turn in a permission slip to attend the photowalk.

Important Date Change

Due to issues involving the Art and Photography field trip to DC this coming Friday, the Digital Photography Club Photowalk at Shank Park has been postponed until next week (Thursday April 10th). Please see Mr. Jurina or Mr. Caldwell if you have any questions about this.

Next photo assignment: Rock

Our next photo assignment for the coming few weeks is "Rock". The definition of this can be open to interpretation, so be creative. We look forward to your submissions! We've also added a new group for critiques. If you have any photos that you'd like some feedback, or would like to give some feedback, you can post the photos there. This group is private, so if you've not gotten an invitation to join the group, please let me (Mr. Jurina) know and I will send you an invite.

Our next meeting will be another Photo Walk. This will take place on Wednesday March 19th from 3:30pm to 5:30pm at Shank's Park. The permission slips for this event will be made available in the next week. We hope you all can come out to join us. Until then, happy shooting!

Next Meeting: Thursday March 6th

Thanks to all who came to our Formal Portrait activity this past Thursday. It was fun! We have decided to make a minor adjustment to our meeting times for the coming months, meeting on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of every month. Therefore our next meeting will be this coming Thursday March 6th in the computer lab. We are planning to take that time to enjoy some food and look at our formal portraits as well as the photos from our latest photo assignment "Low-perspective". If you have not contributed any low-perspective shots, please feel free to upload a few of them to the Flickr page. We will also be discussing the location and details of our next Photo Walk, which will take place on March 20th. Happy Shooting!

New Photo Assignment: low-perspective photos

Thank you, to everyone who turned out for our latest meeting. We enjoyed some yummy chocolate-covered peanut butter eggs made by Jill as we looked at the great photos you took. We also discussed and decided on our next Photography Club activity, which will be Formal Portraiture. This activity will take place on Thursday, February 28th from 3:30pm to 6pm at the school. See Mr. Caldwell or Mr. Jurina for more details. Make certain to bring a few outfits if you want to have a couple photos taken of yourself. You do not need to wear just formal clothing. You may be as creative as you want.

Our newest assignment, as seen above is called, "Low-Perspective". The rule is that you can take any photo, but the perspective must be no higher than 1 foot off of the ground. This includes the ground outside and your floors in your house. However, no other surface counts (such as your couch or bed). Don't forget to post your shots on our Flickr page. Have fun with this one!
