SUMMARY:Field Trip: The Old Town Farmers' Market
DESCRIPTION:The Old Town Farmers’ Market held in front of city hall is the oldest farmers’ market held continuously at one site in the country.  The market as well as the block around City Hall offers lots of photographic opportunities for the street and urban photographer.  Vendors will be tending to their stalls\, shoppers will be scrutinizing the wares\, and others will be out for a stroll making this area a fun and target rich environment.  There’s even more to see as you walk down King Street to the waterfront. \n\n\n\nWe’ll meet at the South East corner of the market (intersection of King St. and N.Fairfax St.) for our usual meet and greet.  We’ll explore the area around the market for a bit and then take a break at a nearby restaurant\, la Madeleine (one block to the West).  Once rested\, you’ll have a choice between venturing down to the waterfront or staying around the market.  Feel free to join the trek or stay as long as you like. \n\n\n\nOur club had a wonderful time when we last attended the market back in September 2019. \n\n\n\nhttps://nvps.smugmug.com/NVPSGallery/Field-Trips/2019-2020-Field-Trips/Old-Town-Alexandria-Sep-2019 \n\n\n\nWhere:301 King St.\, Alexandria\, VA \n\n\n\nFree underground parking is available at the Market Square Garage until 12:30pm.  Access the garage at 108 N. Fairfax St. between Cameron and King St. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional parking options are outlined on the Alexandria City website.  (https://www.alexandriava.gov/sites/default/files/2022-08/OldTownParkingMap2022Update.pdf) \n\n\n\nWhen:Saturday\, September 28\, 2024 from 8a.m. – 11a.m.  (Rain date / no market: Sunday\, September 29\, 2024 from 8a.m. – 11a.m.) \n\n\n\nEquipment: \n\n\n\n\nMost subjects won’t be that far away.  Lenses around 24-70mm will provide excellent results.\n\n\n\nConsider bringing a longer lens in the range of 70-200mm if you want more candid shots from a distance\n\n\n\nDon’t forget your polarizer \n\n\n\nTripods may be helpful as a creative tool but are not necessary\n\n\n\nWear comfortable shoes\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWe hope you can join us!Rena Schild and Steven GlintzField Trip Coordinators 2024-2025
