Greetings all, The 10th annual RiverFest Duck Race sponsored by the Beacon Falls Lions and Lioness Clubs are in the planning stages for Saturday Sept. 27. The...
There were six of us yesterday. We met at the Oxford Ambulance Corp and waited til 6:45 pm. It didn't rain at that moment. As soon as we got the parking lot...
Heming - I think you nailed the "water" assignment. Very nice photo. I've attached my shot taken in between rain deluges. The very soft light kept the...
I like the idea of field trips for the mid-session meetings. At Matthies Park, Southford Falls, and Seymour Reservoirs there are a lot of things to photograph!...
I went for a more close-up shot. (see attached) It was a great lighting situation providing nice long exposures. Definitely got drenched. J Camera stayed...
I like the touch of green behind the silky water on Devin's vertical shot. Speaking of doing an abstract in the kitchen, a friend who attended a Freeman...
Here's another good article. Randy ... From: Richard Sereque <rsereque@...> To: valleyphotoclub@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2008 4:02:38...
Have anyone tried the techniques of shooting fireworks? Here are some from last night Naugatuck fireworks viewed from my home in Beacon Falls. There are still...
Note: forwarded message attached. Hi All, This is the "Sailfest" event I spoke about happening in New London. It is the 2nd largest firworks display in...

I didn’t shoot any fireworks yet - didn’t even watch any. The last two weeks – except for the Southford Falls field trip – I’ve been creating a ...
They are great even with the colored smoke. Looks you were very close to the launching site. I remember the year I shot Beacon Falls' fireworks I was at the...
Beautifully done, Devin. I can tell it's a lot of work. Is there a format of the album? by which you only have to pick up which picture goes where. Still...
I was as close as you could get, on the left side of the parking lot. Randy ... From: Heming Jiang <heming_j@...> To: valleyphotoclub@yahoogroups.com ...
I use Gary Fong’s Album Design Software which is essentially a full set of Photoshop actions. I find I use most of the actions less and less the more albums...
First, a few comments: Randy - Thanks for the article. Devin - Wow! That's quite an album! Your clients will be very happy. Blake - Because I'll be at NECCC...
Great story Rick. Don't you hate it when our brain is the most malfunctioning piece of equipment at a shoot? Been there, done that. I think my wife would...
Excellent image. Quite believable if you hadn't said you added the fireworks. That is the type of shot I'm looking to do for fireworks. I'm looking for...
Devin, Wow, very impressive! It makes most wedding albums (like mine) look boring! I'm not sure I like the background on pages 24-25, I think a blurred version...
Yes, the pages lay flat and have no greater than 1/8" gap. I try to never put a face on a seam. I'll look at those pages when I get to the office. Thanks for...
Years ago I used to bring the camera everywhere on weekends but stopped doing that for some reason. During the week, the car would be too hot this time of...
I hear you. When there is no camera, the opportunities abound ! I got my first digital camera 2 years ago - Nikon Coolpix P3, the best they had then. It...
I had a similar film experience. Situation: Chaos around my first wedding day, Dec/Jan 1981/2. I owned two Minolta XG1's - one with a an 80-200mm and the...
How about this shot. Very close to the one I took at the Southford Falls. We used the smae technique: long exposure 10 sec. But his or hers (I can't tell...
Me, too. Back in college and back in China, I went a bicycle trip with a couple of my classmates (300 miles for the round trip and four days long). I carried...
Around 1983 I attended the Zone VI (week long) Workshop in Putney, VT led by Fred Picker. One day we went out to photograph in a cemetery. Back then I had a...
All of the Advantix Photo System (APS) film cameras were that way. The rolls had a 1-2-3-4 numbering system on the bottom to indicate new-partially shot-shot...
