More about the upcoming Photography Group SIG
‘Photography on the waterfront‘
During the Thursday 14 May session, weather permitting, we plan to enjoy a short safari over the road from Anvil House to the Harbour front with our cameras.
Leaving first floor, ANVIL House at 10:10 am we will check out and photograph interesting objects, views and folks in the near vicinity of Te Papa, the Wharf front, Frank Kitts Park, the lagoon and so on.
Returning to ANVIL house, we may view and discuss our pics, both good and perhaps not so good at about 11:10 am, with the group while relaxing over coffee/tea and biscuits.
Past safaris have produced some wonderful pics and useful learning examples. A great opportunity to brush the dust off little-used cameras too!
Windows SIG workshop with Pete – third Thursday each month at 12:30pm. Next: 16th April at 12:30pm. To read more about this SIG: Read More
