Minutes from the JGCC Meeting - July 14th
We started our second meeting with a make your own ice cream sandwich. In attendance were five kids and their parents. We went around the table doing introductions.
Vern Wells again did a kid friendly presentation on Composition complete with props. He stressed how important it was to get to know your camera and all the features and functions it has to offer. He shared pictures he had taken explaining rule of thirds, backlit pictures, leading lines, simplicity, and balance. The kids took turns taking pictures of his props with their cameras.
Congratulations to Karly Fisher for winning the “flower” category scavenger hunt picture with roses and Teagan Lapuk for winning the “favorite” category with a picture she took of two wild horses on the beach in North Carolina. All pictures submitted showed talent and creativity.
We discussed words for next month’s Scavenger Hunt and agreed on the words "Adventure" and "Favorite" for our next meeting in August, date TBA. Again, photo size suggested was 4x6 or 5x7. Each child can enter one photo into each category. Please bring your photos to our next meeting. We encourage your children to bring any pictures they took and would like to share with the group, perhaps ones that they considered entering for the contest.
We are planning to meet once a month with the juniors and hope to agree on a date to do a field trip to Stanley Park in Westfield, MA.
