Press release from North Haven Camera Club:

Sept. 20, 2022

North Haven will be hosting Mark Battista on Tuesday, Oct. 4th at 7pm for two new recently created online presentations on 'Developing Creativity' followed by 'Exploring Motion and Gesture'. The talk on developing creativity will focus on various ways of coming up with ideas that can be used to compose creative style photography shots. The presentation on motion is another way to look at using the camera in a slightly unusual way. So often photographers want to freeze action, but this talk is focused on embracing motion and blur.
