PHOTOGRAPHY & BACK YARD BIRDING

Backyard Birding - by Mark Theriot

Attracting, Posing and Photographing our Feathered Friends

Sometimes
the best nature photography is as close as your backyard. Spend an
evening learning how to make your backyard both an inviting place for
birds to hang out and a mini avian photography studio.  Key topics that
will be covered include:

    Attracting birds that match your available habitat
    Establishing photogenic conditions
    Equipment and techniques


The Lake County Camera Club (LCCC) was founded in the early 1960's by

dedicated photographic artists for the purpose of enjoyment of the

skills and craft inherent in this endeavor. Through sharing of our

avocation, friendships are made and strengthened that will endure

forever. One of the goals of the LCCC is to have fun at doing what is

enjoyable in the spirit of friendly competition and sharing of

knowledge. To this end, the club meetings are friendly and open,

conducted in a casual atmosphere where everyone is welcome to

participate as fully as they like. Our mission; to promote, teach and

share the ideas, skills, techniques and good practices of the art of

photography and the use of cameras and photographic equipment.



LCCC is a member of the Chicago Area Camera Clubs Association (CACCA) and a member of Photographic Society of America (PSA).
