Field Trips

With the theme of "Get Out of Your Comfort Zone," 2024 field trips will encompass a spectrum of photographic opportunities and styles designed to appeal to a wide range of interests.  The different venues provide interesting opportunities to learn more about your camera and practice some of the skills learned in one of the club’s classes. There are no prerequisites or camera requirements, whether it's your cellphone camera, your point-and-shoot camera, or your heavy DSLR.  We encourage ALL skill levels to participate - novice or beginning photographers are especially welcome because they can ask questions and get advice from the more advanced photographers.

Keep an eye out for future e-mails explaining registration, carpooling options and some pop-up field trips that occur from time to time.
