But digital photography and post\u2013production tools&nbsp; were game changers. It&#8217;s so much easier to experiment without the expense of getting rolls of film developed. Her photography really took off after a photo trip to Alaska in the winter of 2017 when she learned about shooting raw files and post\u2013processing with Lightroom and Photoshop. She loves the creativity that it gives her to convey what she feels. Nancy has taken several photography trips since then to places like Yellowstone, the Southwest, and most recently, Botswana. Each trip brings new skills, new ways of seeing the world around her, and new friends. Her photography doesn&#8217;t yet have a particular style, and she is not drawn to one particular genre. She sees photography as a journey of learning, seeing, and connecting with the world around her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/aurora-2.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description: Nancy will discuss her trips to see the aurora borealis, and what she learned on each one.&nbsp; The presentation will include information on gear, camera settings, and editing aurora [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":31297,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-activities","category-forum","entry","has-media"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Headshot-IMG_4971.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-14 07:13:37","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31301"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31304,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31301\/revisions\/31304"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31297"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nvps.org\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
