Do you want to survive visiting and photographing the National Parks? Join us on Tuesday, September 20th, from 6:30-8pm to hear Ron Wybranoski present ‘Dream It! Plan It! Do It! Visiting & Photographing the National Parks’. He will present this multi-media presentation about planning a photo trip to the National Parks. It is a step-by-step guide to setting an itinerary, researching the parks, using maps, guides, books and the web to select your route.
Several useful photo and travel tips will be covered as well as how to create a wish list of specific places to visit and images to take. Besides many of the well-known parks such as Zion, Arches, the Tetons and Yellowstone, many lesser known locations such as the Wave and White Pocket in Southern Utah, Hoodoos, Escalante, Cathedral Valley in Capital Reef, White Sands and Badlands will be discussed.
Ron is a serious amateur photographer and just starting to publicly display his images. His primary focus is on nature photography with a goal of capturing singular images of the beautiful flowers, birds, animals and scenery that surround us all.
Ron has traveled extensively to the National Parks, particularly those in the West. His favorites are the Grand Tetons in the fall, Arches and Canyonlands in the spring, and Zion and Grand Staircase-Escalante anytime he can get there. He is a member of the Merrimack Valley Camera Club (MVCC) in North Andover, MA. He has won many medals and ribbons at MVCC and in regional competitions sponsored by the New England Camera Club Council (NECCC).
How will you survive the library being closed Labor Day weekend from September 3-5? STOCK UP! We’ll be open on Friday, September 2nd until 8pm and then we will re-open on September 6th at 10am.
