Field Trips – L’Enfant Plaza Trains & Architecture
Joint Field Trip with the Prince William Photography Club
February 11 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Please join us for a special joint field trip with members of the Prince William Photography Club. This is a chance to meet and shoot with new people who love photography and their photography club as much as we do ours.
In February we will meet up at the L’Enfant Plaza Metro station, where we can photograph the architecture, trains and people in the Metro station as well as the VRE train station located there as well. If the weather permits we can also spend some time photographing the exterior of the International Spy Museum (1 min. walk), the new, all-glass Metro headquarters (6 min. walk) and HUD headquarters (8 min. walk).
When:
Sunday, February 11 from 2:00 – 4 :00p.m.
There is no rain date for this event since it will take place indoors.
Equipment and Notes:
Bring lenses you would use for street photography (35mm or 50mm) and architecture photography (wide angle), or travel light by bringing a good walk-around lens like a 24-120 or 28-300. Since the Metro station is indoors, a 2.8 lens or better glass would help you keep your ISO down.
Tripods are prohibited in the Metro station.
There is free parking on Sunday on nearby streets, including Independence Avenue, but the most convenient mode of transportation would be to take the Metro to the L’Enfant Plaza station.
You will need to bring or purchase a Metro farecard in order to enter the Metro station (which you will have if you have arrived by Metro).
Where:
L’Enfant Plaza Metro Station
600 Maryland Ave., SW
Washington DC
NVPS and PWCC members will meet just inside the turnstiles at the Maryland Ave & 7th St. SW entrance at 2 p.m.
We hope you can join us!
