Hi, Camera Club Members, Friends and Family

Save Sunday, February 26, for an exciting field trip to The Big Cypress Shootout, a Seminole War Reenactment. This is truly a great photo op, with so many things going on that you won't know where to point your camera. When we did this field trip before, I came out with hundreds of fabulous shots. There was the soldiers' encampment when I saw weary families roasting vittles over campfires, and a general on horseback giving advice to his men. And then, wow, during the big shootout I almost wore out my camera taking pictures of the battle between the Seminoles and the U.S. Army, what with smoke from gunfire and canons, hand-to-hand combat, horses thundering across the field, sometimes losing their rider along the way. Talk about excitement!

That's only one part of what's on offer at the Big Cypress Shootout. It will go on for three days, but as a group we plan to attend on Sunday, Feb. 26. Carpooling is a possibility. I'll be out of town until Jan 30, but if you have questions that can't wait, shoot an email to Albert (alseiden@mac.com).
