Join your fellow TBCC members for a fun evening at the Florida State Fair on Wednesday, February 12th!

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST!

We will meet at 6:00 PM (sunset is at 6:18 PM so we want to be there for sunset and blue hour) at the base of the Giant Ferris Wheel that overlooks the large pond. It is the largest of the Ferris wheels. There is an open area in front of it with some tables.

Please let me know if you are planning to attend this outing by emailing mytbcc@gmail.com by 7 PM on February 11th. If you arrive after 6:15 PM please text me and I will let you know where we are. I will email my cell # to those attending.

Wednesday night is usually not very crowded so this is the best time to make images.

We will be going rain or shine! Puddles are great for night shots!

Be sure to remember where you parked your car, it is a very large parking lot! And remember the gate number you came in at.

Bring a lens that can go from wide to zoom and a tripod. It is best to travel as light as possible. They do have security at the gates so be prepared for that. For the safety of your equipment, use a vest or backpack instead of a roller bag. We have never had a problem but better safe than sorry.

We will spend a couple of hours wandering around the mid-way to capture some long exposures, multiple exposures, ICMs, and street photography. At this point, Robert is planning to be there.

If you are so inclined there is plenty of “fair food” to eat while walking around.

I hope to see you there!

Lynn W.
