June Meeting

Our June 6 meeting was open to the public as part of the observances for National Garden Week.  Noted local photographer Tom Doyle spoke on “The Art of Garden Photography.”  Tom provided us with some basic principles about image composition and the use of light in our photographs.  We learned about the importance of having a focal point and the guideline of thirds. 

A highlight of the presentation was Tom’s use of his own photographs to illustrate his points.  We saw beautiful images of the Hudson River and other area sights. 

 

The meeting included designs by club members using the theme of “Art in Bloom.”  Designers used a work of art as inspiration for an exhibit.  The designs were varied, with all creating their own works of art.  A brief business meeting concluded the evening’s events.
