4th April

With five attending we had an interesting show of photos about Spring and Easter. Some unusual flowers and plants, and many familiar ones, including the beautiful magnolias out now.
We discussed the different ways to make really fast shots, when to use burst mode and when to use video, for catching just that single frame when the subject is moving quickly.
Next month on the 2nd of May, we will gather at Calke Park, in the main house car park at 10.00 am.
