State College Photo Club

Saturday, June 22, 2019
7:30 AM - Noon

ChicoryLane Farm offers a variety of natural environments, including several kinds of wetlands, forests, and grasslands. There are streams, vernal pools, a pond, and vistas both near and far. It also offers a variety of texture subjects, from old farm buildings to deeply furrowed bark of enormous old trees.

Please join us to explore its photographic possibilities. 

The field day will begin at 7:30 AM and will end around Noon, although individuals may continue as they like until dusk. Light Refreshments will be served.

Two Guided Walks will be provided, one focusing on Macro Photography and the other on Landscape Photography. There will also be a demonstration of Drone Photography. Emphasis will be placed on  participation and self-selected activity. We encourage participants with a range of experience and expertise and the free-flow of information and perspective.
