Part 1 – Come join OVCC on Thursday, July 6th, for the third of four tours of the Cemetery.

NOTE: We will be exploring the painted yellow line’s northern loop encompassing sections 134 to 143. Parts of the loop are in shadow and you may want to use a tripod to avoid high ISO.

There will be four monthly shooting sessions together – May – August

Thursday evenings, then submit up to three images and discuss the following Thursday evening online May —August. We will depart at 6:30 pm by car from the Customer Service Parking Lot to the right of the main entrance. Our remaining 2 monthly sessions will depart the first Thursday at 6:30 PM – July 6th, and August 3rd.

Our first option will be touring and shooting in a specified section in caravan formation. With one-half-hour free shooting time at the end. We will follow directions to specified broken painted road lines as the evening’s tour before separating to pursue our own photographic endeavors. Or you may drive independently.

IF YOU CANNOT SHOOT ON THURSDAYS, TRY THAT FRIDAY-SATURDAY, AND SUBMIT IMAGES BY SUNDAY MIDNIGHT. Spring Grove CLOSES GATES AT 6:00 FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS.

We will be touring and shooting in different sections each of our four sessions.

PUBLIC RESTROOMS are in the foyer of the Customer Service Center. They are open until 8 pm on Mondays and Thursdays during the Summer Gate Hours.

THURSDAYS – You MUST exit by 8 pm and no later, GATES LOCKED 8 PM.

PART 2 – DEBRIEF: Submit up to three images on our Event site by the following Sunday at midnight. Then on July 13th we will meet online to share our thoughts behind taking our images and how we processed them. Others will contribute their impressions of each image. Our 1 remaining monthly session will be August 10th.
