Another great outing to Sandy Hook to photograph the recently opened Sandy Hook Life Saving Station.  They will use the photos taken by the members to advertise the Station in the future.  

  

     




Child's Park, Pennsylvania

A cool and cloudy day aided  SCC members in getting some great photos of the waterfalls at Child's Park recently.   Long exposure was the theme of the day.  Members were able to practice using their neutral density filters to slow down the falls and emphasize the whirlpools.  A fun day for everyone!






Liberty State Park in New Jersey!


Weather scared off several attendees but those who came enjoyed good weather and great views to shoot. ( A few of the attendees pictured below.) The cherry blossoms were out which enhanced the photo taking experiences.  Everyone had a great time.
