Outings
We are suspending official outings for the immediate future. Our priority is to protect the health of our membership. We will keep our members informed and re-introduce as soon as we can. In the interim our hardworking Outings committee have compiled the following suggestions.
Ideas for personal photography outings while club outings are suspended.
Autumn Colours: there are plenty of parks/wooded areas/individual trees or shrubs/leaves to be photographed – but hurry – autumn is well underway. Squirrels are also plentiful as they collect and eat fallen nuts from beech trees especially.
Coastal images: for some members living within 5km of the Dublin coastline, there are endless possibilities: sunrise/sunset/seabirds/stormy conditions etc
Rivers also offer many opportunities to photograph wildlife: look out for birds especially: herons/kingfishers/wagtails/ dippers/ cormorants etc.
Dublin City: For those within 5kn of Dublin City the cityscape offers endless possibilities as well as street photography. Also many of our local villages have buildings or monuments of architectural interest. Again remember street photography.
Signs of Winter: frost/ snow/flooding/ bare trees etc
Moon: for those who missed the blue moon on October 31st there is a Full Moon every month. The next full moon is November 30th.
