* KOI FARMS IN HANOVERKOI FARMS IN HANOVER

Time: 9:00 am

PHOTO FIELDTRIP to HANOVER KOI FARMS IN HANOVER PA Rain or Shine on SATURDAY JUNE 22nd Leaving from the Camp Hill Arby’s at 9:00 A.M. The Harrisburg Camera Club will be making a trip to the Hanover Koi Farms on Saturday June 22nd. We will be car pooling from our usual location at the Arby’s side of the Camp Hill Giant Grocery Store, at 9:00 AM in the morning. We expect to be at the Koi Farm when they open at 10:00. This is one of the premier Koi farms in the United States with large and exotic Koi fish. We plan to photograph around 3 hours, then have a group lunch sometime after 1:00 P.M. Our primary goal is to photograph individual or schools of Koi fish. There are several ways that it can be accomplished with large apertures and short shutter speeds or with small apertures and long shutter speeds and everything in between. I do not know if fill flash will help. I know that fill flash will freeze movement and using second curtain flash could make some strange, unusual and abstract images. You should bring are extra batteries, extra digital cards, comfortable shoes, a tripod, a macro lens, and a medium to long lens for close-ups. A hat to keep you cool and money to pay your driver and for lunch. Other items to consider bringing are a ladder to get higher, bug spray and a scrim or diffuser to cut harsh light. One very important item is a polarizing filter. It is a very important tool to cut glare and darken the water. There is no entrance fee or shooting fee. This event is rain or shine. If you have any questions contact Andrew Hoff 592-9304 4PM-9PM M-F 10Am-9PM Sat-Sun or at president@harrisburgcameraclub.org
