SUMMARY:Field Trip - Renwick Gallery:  Burning Man Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:September’s field trip will be to the Smithsonian Renwick Gallery Museum (Pennsylvania Avenue at 17th Street NW). We will meet on Saturday\, September 15\, 9:50 AM at the front entrance. We’ll also meet for lunch at a nearby restaurant (TBD) at 12:00 AM. Tripods are not allowed. A sign-up sheet will be available at the September 4 and 11 club meetings. Cost is free. Mike Whalen is the organizer for this trip. \n“No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man brings the large-scale\, participatory work from this desert gathering to the nation’s capital for the first time. The exhibition takes over the entire Renwick Gallery building and surrounding Golden Triangle neighborhood\, bringing alive the maker culture and creative spirit of this cultural movement.” \nThe artistic creations\, lighting\, shapes and colors of this exhibit\, in addition to the building architecture\, will make for an interesting morning of photography. Watch this video to get a better idea of what you’ll see: Burning Man youtube video.

SUMMARY:Education & Training Meeting:  Matting Tutorial with Bob & Willa Friedman
DESCRIPTION:At this month’s Education and Training session\, Bob and Willa will present a how-to/hands-on matting seminar to help members prepare their images for print competition\, exhibits or for personal use. \n\n\n\nThey will present how they cut and mount photos.  They use the “Corey Hilz Method” for cutting and mounting.\n\nOther methods and instructions for mat cutting and a spreadsheet can be found on the NVPS website. B & H also has a video at:\n\n\n\nEveryone’s method is different. The B & H demonstrator tapes the image to the backboard; we don’t do that for a number of reasons. There are also several mat cutters that have variations but in the end we all get the same result.\n\nAfter our brief demonstration\, there will be several workstations around the room where several experienced members will demonstrate how they cut mat using their equipment.   \n\nThis is a hands-on session\, so bring a photo\, not larger than 8.5 x11 to mat.  We will have mat board and other materials required to practice on.\n\nIf you have a mat cutter\, bring it to follow along.\n\nHere are are some documents (2 Word and 1 Excel) Resource for you to download.  Click on the link and then right-click (Mac: CTL+Click)  to select Save Link As to save to your hard drive:\n\nmatting Resources\n\nMake Mattes\n\nDouble Mats_measuring & cutting

SUMMARY:Field-Trip: Longwood Gardens
DESCRIPTION:A favorite summer attraction at Longwood Gardens has recently been restored and brought to nighttime brilliance — the illuminated fountain presentations. We’ll be traveling there for a Thursday field trip on August 16. (The trip will be Thursday rather than the weekend to try to avoid the large weekend crowds.) \n\n\n\nWe’ll meet in front of the glass conservatory around 7:00 pm for the 9:15 pm show\, which lasts about 30 minutes. Please plan to have dinner before then. (If you plan to eat inside garden grounds\, the Cafe\, which was undergoing renovation during our winter field trip\, is now open\, as is a Beer Garden.) The gardens and the conservatory open at 9:00 am. Timed tickets are required for admission — $23 for adults\, $20 for seniors (62+)\, and 25 percent off the adult admission for military with a valid DOD card. If you’re a member\, you’ll need to get timed admission tickets (free) if you plan to arrive after 3:00 pm. \n\n\n\nTripods and flash — you’re allowed to use tripods in the Conservatory between 9:00 am and noon\, and in the Gardens at any time\, with exceptions. The exceptions will probably include a prohibition on tripods during the light and fountain show because of the crowds. The Garden’s policy says there “may” be restrictions that are announced prior to the performance — if the crowds are sparse\, we may be able to use tripods. They do expressly prohibit flash after dark. \n\n\n\nKennett Square is about 2 hours drive from the Dunn Loring Fire Station where NVPS meets. If you don’t want to make the drive home some time in the sun and an evening shooting the fountain and light show\, there are several hotels in and near Kennett Square. \n\n\n\nQuestions — please email field-trips “at” nvps.org.——————————————— \n\n\n\nLongwood Gardens never disappoints. Join us for a full day of photography. Arrive at your leisure and we will meet at the cafeteria for lunch at 12:30. \n\n\n\nWhat you need: \n\n\n\nPlease check their website for directions and tickets. \n\n\n\n\nhttps://longwoodgardens.org/\n\n\n\n\nIf you plan on spending the night\, check hotels in the Kennett Square Pa. area. \n\n\n\nThe Illuminated Fountain Show starts at 9:15 PM and lasts about 30 minutes. I am still working on how we might get permission to use tripods. \n\n\n\nOtherwise tripods can be used inside until noon. Outside they can be used during regular hours but be mindful of other guests. \n\n\n\nThere are great flower and architecture photography opportunities from macro to wide angle. Diffusers and reflectors are helpful outdoors. The Water Lily display in the evening is a must. \n\n\n\nI will plan on being there most of the day. If we can not use tripods for the night fountains\, I will likely leave after sunset. \n\n\n\nStan Bysshe
