“Mountains” are the Photo Theme For October

Mountains – What is a better subject for an iconic landscape photo than a majestic mountain peak?  While mountains provide an ideal setting for nature photography, they also present some challenges.  Plan ahead, shoot during the “golden hour” [understanding that it could be very short], shoot during weather events, include a foreground interest, include water in the composition [when possible], include people for scale, use a small aperture, and don’t limit yourself to iconic shots.

Create photographs that fit the theme and upload up to five of them to the club’s Monthly Photo Themes flickr group.  Post them during OCTOBER, not before or after, that way they’ll appear together with other club member’s images.
