PICTURE PERFECT! NEW PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB

The Bedford Photography Club's picked "Memorials" as a theme for the month of May. With that, it was only fitting this would include a shoot at the D-Day Memorial who graciously allowed the newly formed club access to the grounds early on the morning of May 14th.  The group initially anticipated a wonderful sunrise but rains created a fog and mist which in retrospect was more reminiscent of the actual conditions that morning of June 6th, 1944.
The group began clicking away using the morning mist to capture some very moving photographs. Perhaps
the sun evaded the group that day, but it was even more successful than anyone anticipated.

Check out some of these of these outstanding photographs in our newsletter and if you have an interest in photography, stop by the Bower. The group meets the 2nd Monday of each month, 7pm, at the Bower Center.
