We will focus on capturing the essence of summer in spectacular summer blooms at the Boerner Botanical Gardens. Join club members as they photograph the collections of flowers in the trial, rose, perennial, herb, shade,and annual gardens. Then we will come inside to review, discuss and critique photos just taken. We will learn from each other and see the gardens as others see them.
Come, hone your skills with us, enjoy the beauty of the gardens, and take home some wonderful photos as memories of the time spent. All participants are invited to the Photo Club meeting that follows the class.
