Sunny Sixteen Will Host a "Photographers' Jamboree" in October

This coming October 19th as the fall weather moderates and temperatures begin to cool Sunny Sixteen will be hosting the first ever "Photographers Jamboree" at Basil Griffin Park on Three Springs Road in Bowling Green.

Currently in the planning stages with more details to come into focus, the planned activities include a variety of photographic opportunities which includes Environmental Portraits with models, Nature Photography, Macro Photography, and sessions on Creative Lighting.

Environmental Portraits will be lead by Erin Denny who owns and operates The Studio on Main Photography Studio. Several Models will be available as she leads sessions on how to capture amazing portraits on location.

Nature Photography will be available around the park for individuals and Julie Barrick will lead sessions on the subject. There are all kinds of birds including waterfowl in the area, along with other scenic variations such as wooden bridges, flowers, fall colors, and of course the lake area.






Macro Photography is perhaps the most unusual type of photography being offered as there will be several tables setup for exploring this fascinating form of creative photography. Sheila Reeves will lead several sessions on the subject.

 Creative Lighting  will be discussed and demonstrated. Within the park you will find the Aviation Heritage Park where several vintage military aircraft are displayed. As part of the Creative Lighting element of the Jamboree, Keith Bridgman will discuss how to capture these amazing aircraft using speed lights and special lighting adaptations. He will also demonstrate some post processing techniques on how to blend these images into a finished product.



Volunteers from the club will be helping out with the various venues and operations being planned as many photographers from around the area will converge for a great day of photography and the sharing of ideas and common interests. Plan on joining us as we explore the world of photography.
