Where: Frick Park, near the Frick Environmental Center
Who: Everyone is welcome! All ages, all skill levels, no matter what type of camera system you have you're encouraged to join us. I'm a professional photographer and photography teacher. While this isn't a formal class I'm more than happy to answer questions and provide tips no matter what type of camera you're using from film to digital, phones to DSLR or mirrorless cameras.
Details: This is part of my Pittsburgh Nature Photography Meetups. I host them monthly in Pittsburgh's incredible Frick Park (and at times elsewhere). It lasts approximately two hours and covers a variety of terrain depending on the participants and what we find to photograph. The adventure happens rain or shine (though thunderstorms have cut us short once). You can leave at any time during the event but please try to arrive on time or you might miss us.
