SOMERSET COUNTY PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB http://www.geocities.com/somersetcountyphotoclub The Somerset County Photography Club (SCPC) will meet on Tuesday March 25, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. "Landscapes and Gardens" By Nancy Ori All persons interested in photography are welcome to join members of the Club for this presentation. "In both the man-made garden and the natural landscape, the photographer must be able to recognize the beauty and record it with personal style. The photographer must carefully approach it in the best way by using an interesting viewpoint, lighting and plant material to create the composition. It's all about controlling as many things in the photograph as you can."....Nancy Ori This presentation will explore some of the key issues in the art of landscape and garden photography. Nancy Ori will share her secrets on both technique and esthetics. She will suggest what she feels is worth shooting, how to compose a picture, how to shoot in different lighting and weather conditions and how to expose correctly. Included will be many helpful hints for the traveling landscape and garden photographer. Nancy Ori has over 35 years experience as a professional photographer, teacher and exhibitor here and abroad. Founder and Director of the New Jersey Photography Forum and Digital Arts Group at the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey in Summit, she is on the faculty of VAC and has taught at the Ansel Adams Workshop in CA, numerous art and museum facilities locally and the Watchung Adult School.
