Hummingbird Capture with Keith Bauer
Join us for a fun session to learn techniques to capture great images of hummingbirds.
The presentation will cover equipment suggestions, techniques ranging from easy options to more sophisticated options including how to set up and do multi-flash hummingbird photography to capture images the human eye just can’t see. If you’re not comfortable with flash, that’s OK. We’ll talk about techniques that don’t require a flash and also show how easy it is to use today’s modern flash technology to get great images of these amazing little birds.

Mid-Week Marauders
This month (April) we are using a hybrid model, where you can attend an outing to the Glass Graveyard with the Marauders, and/or you can shoot pictures of the themes from a location, date, time of your own choice. This month's themes are Colors & Shapes, and Spring.
The glass graveyard encompasses about 20 acres of the Rio Grande Valley State Park. This was once part of the city’s Old River Landfill from 1920 until 1948. Over the years rubbish has been burned in the landfill; mixed amongst the shards are congealed and warped blobs of molten glass.
If you choose to go on the outing, the Glass Graveyard, here is the info:
Date: Wednesday April 21.
Time: 9:00 am
Location: 2345 2nd St. SW ABQ, 87102
Directions: Get to 2nd street whichever way is easiest from where you are coming from. One of us will be standing at the turn-off on 2nd street from about 8:50 - 9:05 am.
Safety Instructions: Wear good shoes or hiking boots, pants are better than shorts, especially if you kneel down to take pictures. Wear a mask and social distance. We will have a parking lot meeting and there will be no lunch or coffee after the shoot.
Hope to see you there!
Barry and Gary
