Also – we need a few photographers at the Hot Cars and Chili festival on January 28 at Anchorage Park.
The event starts around noon, and the Village Recreations Department wants some specific photos from our group for their newsletter. If you can make it from 12 until around 4:30 (the awards photos will be taken at 3:30), please let Dina know (LitigatorBarbie@comcast.net) and she will provide further instructions on the types of photos they want.
We will attempt to include a slideshow of the pictures you Car Photographers will take at the show at our February meeting, along with the Doors, Gates, and Windows (the February theme). (Car windows could be rather interesting as well. )

Meeting place, North Palm Beach Library
Have a great summer!

LCC 2021 Upcoming Field Trips
It’s time we plan some fun outside photo shoots. We have done these before and had great success in the imagery, weather conditions and just plain fun!
September: We will meet at the Roosevelt Bridge, in Stuart, South end on Friday, September 24 at 6:30 PM……..sunset is at 7:14.
There are picnic tables in the adjacent park for those who want to bring food, snack or drinks….also a lot of restaurants nearby.
If we are lucky a train will come by at sunset and provide really good imagery.
October: Early morning……we will meet at Dubois Park, in Jupiter on Saturday, October 23 at 6:30 AM………sunrise is at 7:23.
There are picnic tables in the adjacent park for those who want to bring food, snack or drinks.
Sunrise on the Lighthouse is beautiful.
November: We will meet at Bethesda-By-the-Sea, in Palm Beach, Saturday November 13 or 20 at around 5:30 to photograph the sunset behind the skyline of West Palm Beach.
This will be discussed at the club meeting to decide which date the membership would prefer.
Future Events: One thought is a return to Palm Beach around the Society of Four Arts to shoot the sculptures and walk the bike trail; also allowing sunset of WPB.
Also, we would like to have a shoot for ‘Light Painting’, needing a very dark venue; out west near Okeechobee of a real dark spooky cemetery.
For these and any other ideas we need your, the Members, input!
September 2021 Meeting Info
Hello LCC members!
Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, September 14, 2021; 6:00 pm at the North Palm Beach Library. We had great Guests and Members at the August meeting….As we try to grow the Club back to our pre-pandemic size, we are also looking for New Members, so, bring along a friend or two!
Remember…..the Library requires the wearing of Masks.
Our monthly theme for September is MEMBER’S CHOICE, which should not be very difficult for a Club of photographers. All members can submit up to ten (10) images for the slide show which will also be used for the Lighthouse Camera Club website and our Facebook page. Thanks to all of you who already sent images!
Please send your images to me or Steve daPonte (he will forward to me) at 72 dpi, with the long side at 1200 pixels (same as always); and I must have them by Sunday night, September 12.
If you have images that you want to share as a slide show….please do! If you need assistance in preparing a slide show we can show you how it’s done!
At the Board meeting we decided that for the summer we would try informal Photo Outings. If you know of a Photo Shoot or are planning a Photo Outing, please let me know and I will forward to the Club Members and you might get some company….again, all very informal. This is a list we compiled of some local Photo Opportunities:
DuBois Park Sawfish Park
Cypress Creek Nature Preserve Pine Glades
Jupiter Dunes Jonathon Dickenson
Riverbend Park Downtown WPB
Bethesda by the Sea Society of Four Arts
