Tonight’s topic: Light Painting
This will be a special presentation on Light Painting by Elyssa Conley, which will be followed (tentatively on November 12) by a hands-on workshop where you can experiment with some of these techniques.
Tonight’s topic: Book Night
Bring your favorite book on photography or favorite photographer for a group discussion.
Tonight’s topic: Natick Night Photo Shoot (Light Painting postponed)
Please note that this night has been swapped with the Image Review Night that would normally take place on the 2nd Monday.
New November Topic: We’ll be meeting in downtown Natick to photograph the town center at night. We’ll be experimenting and sharing ideas for shooting with limited ambient light. After the shoot, we’ll meet somewhere for food and/or drink if anyone is interested.
Where we’ll meet: We’ll meet at the main entrance to the Morse Library on E. Central Street (Rt 135) in Natick Center at 7:30 pm. From there, we’ll walk around Natick Center, including the town common and its gazebo.
What to bring: Bring your camera, a tripod, and any accessories you’d like to work with. If you’re not familiar with your camera’s options for time exposures, it makes sense to review your manual and/or take a couple of test shots at home first.
Parking options: There is some parking on Rt. 135 in front of the library, on Washington Street next to the library, and around the town common. There is also a lot behind the police station on South Street.
Rain Date: If the weather doesn’t look good, we’ll move the shoot to November 26 and the image review to November 12. I’ll send an email before 4:00 pm to let you know if there’s a change.
Image Review: The November image review optional topic will be “Sunrise/Sunset”. This is scheduled for November 26.

Tonight’s topic: Movie Night
Please join us for Movie Night—we’ll be streaming a movie via Netflix. You’re welcome to bring some refreshments to share with the group. I’ll provide cups and paper goods. Last year the group selected Public Eye, and it was excellent.
The following movies feature the theme of photography in some way, and they all stream on Netflix. Feel free to bring any other suggestions to the meeting. We’ll choose one of the available options, based on a consensus of those who are attending.
