A MAP TO GREAT IMAGES OF HOLIDAY LIGHTS!
Our upcoming Field Trip, WED., DEC. 11, is to The Silver Lights Festival at Hubbard Park in Meriden.
This is a spectacular display with over 300,000 lights and hundreds of lighted characters throughout the 1,800-acre park.
Lighted displays can be found decorating buildings, floating on the pond, in the trees, and nestled in the grassy hills.
It’s a great time to photograph these beautiful scenes, maybe use one for your holiday cards.
We will meet @ 4:15 pm in the large parking lot in the back of the park.
Please contact Colleen Reilly at colleen@halleycomm.net if you are interested in going.

FIELD TRIP BACK TO THE 50's on Thu., Nov. 14, 2019
https://www.facebook.com/groups/NewHavenCameraClub/permalink/2553547578056882/
Join us for a retrospective tour of 1950s Americana and pop culture, housed in an old fire house in southern Massachusetts. Inside are rare Coca-Cola memorabilia, scale models, records, signs, a remake of a general store with candy, juke box, and a working marble bar, plus a rare automobile collection including the Lincoln limousine used by President Lyndon Johnson and the Cadillac from the first Godfather film. Opportunity for object, still life, and detail photography in a private indoor setting. The collector is Cliff's personal friend and a longtime radio personality on NPR's Car Talk.
Join NHCC on Monday November 11th for Mark Bowie's presentation MOONLIT: how to photograph by moonlight
In targeting the Milky Way, most night photographers avoid photographing under a large moon. Yet there’s so much more to discover under the light of the moon. Moonlight provides many benefits for photographing the earthbound landscape. It casts fill light, illuminating details and colors of both man-made structures and natural subjects. It theatrically interacts with clouds, fog and water, offering creative possibilities not only for shooting stills, but time-lapse and video. It can add ambience, mystery and a sense of wonder. The possibilities are limited only by our vision and imagination.
I’ll discuss using apps to put photographers in position to best take advantage of moonlit
subjects. I’ll present innovative field and processing techniques, and cover camera settings, how
to compose and focus, and determine exposure. I’ll cover artistic possibilities presented under
all phases, optical phenomena created by moonlight, photographing eclipses and long exposures
of the moon, shooting and blending multiple exposures to capture detail in the moon and
landscape, and shooting time interval and time lapse sequences to creatively present the moon’s
trajectory across the night sky.
Ultimately, my goal is to expose viewers to the artistic possibilities of this little-covered facet of
night photography while helping them discover more about the natural world — lit by the light
of the moon.
