Our Tarrytown, New York Field Is Fast Approaching! Details on this & Our New Season's Assigned Subjects Are Below!
Tarrytown is home to the famed Sleepy Hollow area. Join us on Thursday, June 15th (rain date Monday, June 19th) for a fun day of photography!
We will be visiting:
(1) Lyndhurst Mansion has 67-acre grounds to shoot gardens, flowers, fountains, outbuilding architecture, and more. It's $10.00 per person. They suggest purchasing tickets online, but it's not necessary since we're only photographing the grounds.
(2) Christ Episcopal Church. They have gorgeous stained-glass windows. No charge! [Image is from their online post]
(3) Philipsburg Manor grounds. Outbuildings, trees, and a bridge surround a pond which provides beautiful reflection images. The pond also entertains ducks. No charge!
(4) Kingsland Point Park (Pierson Park). From here you can get great photos of the Mario Cuomo Bridge, ferries, and other water vehicles traveling on the Hudson. And there could be other irresistible scenes along the riverwalk. There is a $10.00 entry per vehicle.
LUNCH! Not forgotten! If the trip is on the 15th, we’ll dine at noon at the Horsefeathers Restaurant, a local favorite with an extensive American menu.
If we reschedule for Monday, June 19th, most restaurants will be closed. However, there is one (Beekman Ale House) that serves pizza & salads. Also, Lyndhurst Mansion and Kingsland Point Park allow picnicking.
Horsefeathers reservations were made for 10 and we're close to that number! So, if interested, please contact Bev Byer at byer454@yahoo.com and include your contact information as well. (If you're really keen on participating as we are for you to participate, we can ask Horsefeathers for one or two more chairs 😊)
Our day begins at the Lyndhurst Mansion parking lot at 10:00 AM!
