About the Nature Photo Meetup
Join me, professional photographer and photography teacher Don Orkoskey for the June Nature Photography Meetup. Explore the wilds of one of the city’s best parks, see birds, mammals, and more, and create wonderful photos no matter what type of camera you have.
This event is open to everyone regardless of skill level, age, and equipment. Come out and have fun with like-minded folks who love nature and photography. While this isn’t a formal class I am always happy to answer questions about photography while we explore and photograph Frick Park.
Please note that this month we’re starting at 9 am, not 9:30 like usual!
Meeting Location
Every month we meet near the Frick Environmental Center. To find us from the covered parking area stand with the Environmental Center directly in front of you and the parking area behind you. Then, look to the left for a series of benches arranged around a low water-fountain. This is where we’ll gather up.
If you’ve taken the bus or parallel parked along Beechwood or in front of the Gatehouses, then walk between the Gatehouses directly down the paved path (with the Environmental Center to your right) towards the benches and water-fountain.
