On May 30 the members of Mimosa’s own 4-H Photography club gathered for yet another meeting.
Members started off with the pledge, and then launched into the lesson portion of the meeting. This month’s topic? Playing with motion shots.
To illustrate a point regarding the parts of a camera, leader Leslie Cook brought out a camera from the 1930s. The shutter on this high-tech piece of equipment is a lot easier to see working than that of a digital camera.
After wrapping up the lesson on how to modify digital cameras for motion shots, members grabbed their own cameras and headed outside, intent on photographically documenting every inch of the great outdoors.
Members got some decidedly strange looks when they tried for motion shots of passing cars, but to be fair, a bunch of children lined up eagerly anticipating an approaching vehicle must seem a bit strange to the uninformed observer.
Naturally, this was merely the source of a good chuckle for the older members and leaders.
Alas, the meeting drew to a close as the sun set and members bid one another good night with the 4-H motto.
