Photography Walk

Rooted in a love for our surroundings, natural and otherwise, Photography Walk was conceived in June 2016. The turnout so promising, additional gatherings were added to the Young Adult program schedule in August and October. With the harsh cold of winter passed, and a spring that’s yielded a return of buds and blossoms, the time becomes right to unpack the gear and head out.

There was a time I used to tote my digital Sony and Canon cameras on routine travels. Whether it be casually strolling the University of Notre Dame campus or grand escapades navigating throughout Las Vegas, the common variable was snapping pictures of everything in sight (I see you, squirrel). Not much has changed, exception being that nowadays an iPhone serves as a capable replacement for this everlasting hobby.

Ah, memories. Now where was I?

Oh yes! On Tuesday, June 13th, we shall embark on a journey into the Bremen community neighborhoods. As with previous Photography Walk programs, a theme will be involved (previous concepts have included Fall Foliage and Back to School). Aligning with the Summer Reading message of Build a Better World, we will be investigating various architecture surrounding BPL. From residential to business, houses to storefronts, unique designs abound.

By setting forth on this trek, a mission exists. Who amongst the group can capture the most intriguing snapshot? As with our other ventures, voting will take place, and prize awarded. A carrot of enticement, if you will, in addition to the outdoor splendor and joyous company of fellow photogs. Your selection may even end up on the library’s social media pages for all the world to see!

Departure from the library is set for 1 p.m. and will last one hour. Dress accordingly for comfort and weather conditions.
