April 2019 Meeting

'Tools from the Past' was originally for March (Enter both)

Tools can be anything, large or small, used to do any kind of job. The topic will give you an easy and wide range of subjects to choose from. The trick will be to present the tool in a way that will move the observer. Work at presenting your tool in a way that will tell a story or create a feeling of nostalgia (or possibly relief that you don’t have to use that thing anymore).

“Singing in the rain” . . . “When it rains it pours” . . . “Don’t rain on my parade” . . . familiar phrases for (most) all of us, each one of which may bring to mind interesting photo opportunities for capturing a moody photograph: A child with a ball and glove looking forlornly through a rain spattered window, people with colorful umbrellas crossing a busy street, a person walking a rain-drenched dog, water gushing from a building rainspout. Just be careful to keep your gear dry! Search “rain photography ideas” for inspiration.

Note: We will *not* have an Open competition in April but will have two Assigned competitions, instead.
