Officer Vic
Star Trails
Rosie speaks.
I’ve chosen an area that we (or at least David and I) have shot from before, it’s nice and flat with good southerly views for star trails and only light noise pollution from Tooradin. There is no moon at all on Monday so as long as the fluffy stuff stays away we should have nice dark skies!
Lecky Rd is off Officer Rd/Station St in Officer and we will be up to the right from the intersection from 7.30pm.
Weather at this stage isn’t great but with 60% chance of showers but only eventuating in 1mm of rain at this stage so it’s going to be more annoying than anything I think.
Remember your cameras, cards, batteries (cold tends to zap the power so if you’ve got more than one it’s a bonus), tripods, remote/cable release if you have one, warm clothes, hat, scarf, beanie, hot drinks, etc…

AGM and Members’ Slide Slide show.
The last AGM had a great set of simple slideshow from members. Get them ready for this AGM.
(a) A few images on a memory card/stick and the software on the club’s computer will turn it into a slide show.
(b) Prepare your simple slide show with your own images/software so it can run on a PC or a Mac.
(c) Make a slideshow with images, music and effects. It does not matter how we do it. The important thing is we are sharing our “visions” and motivating others to do similar. It’s enjoyable too …
