Winners Selected for Night Photography
The April intra-club competition was on the theme "Night Photography" and there were 14 entries in our two groups. Group A photographers generally have a few competition wins or have self-declared more experience while Group B photographers are newer members.
In Group A, Mogens Hermansen's "UFO Tower" was awarded first place. Steve Wingfield's "24 Thousand Light Years Away" was given a second place ribbon and Peter Riekstins's image called "Night Photography" was awarded third place.
  
In Group B, "Spooky Pier Underbelly" by Brian Koonce took first place. Dorothy Foley's "Andrew Chapel" was awarded second place and Robert Garner's "Night Corner" received a third-place ribbon. Congratulations to all of the winners!

A field trip to the Black River Cypress Preserve was held April 9 in a private nature reserve in South Carolina. Wonderful views of the Cypress Swamp and wild flowers, even if the hope-for birds were in short supply.
 
CCCC is preparing a field trip with Waccamaw River trips to photograph Ospreys in the wild. The cutoff date for signing up is April 20 and the maximum number of participants is 15. The tour will be 90 minutes and the cost for the trip is $32.95. Please let Dave know at dkilgore@atmc.net if you want to participate.
