Update:  The gallery of images from this field trip is: NVPS Field-Trip Gallery – September 2013

Our first field trip of the year is going to be held at the old “Truck Graveyard” located in Columbia VA.  Whether it is this year’s Abandoned and Discarded or next year’s Still Life competition theme, this visit will provide ample photo opportunities for both.  There’s acres of old and abandoned trucks that provide great opportunities for close-up, still life, HDR, abstract photography and more.  The estimated drive is 2.5 hours from our area to Columbia, VA which is situated half-way between Richmond and Charlottesville.  This field trip will begin at the truck graveyard at 9:00am with no time limit for our visit.  Details for carpooling will be coming soon.  If you would like to sign up for this trip or have any questions, please contact Chuck and Tom, the field trip coordinators at field-trip@nvps.org.  Old Truck examples by Mike Whalen.
