Membership in the ShutterBugs-OTOW Photography Club is open to all residents of OTOW.

Our Mission is to foster growth, vision, and knowledge of photography. We encourage membership by fellow devotees from novices to pros.

Join us to learn how to:

• take better photos;
• organize your photos on your computer;
• edit your photographs using Photoshop Elements, Picassa, etc., and
• display your photos.

You’ll be able to participate in photography challenges, meet new neighbors, take field trips to capture exciting new places, events, and nature with your camera – and then what to do with the photos once you’ve taken them.

This club is all about the members—so come and join us. Meetings are held the first two Tuesdays of the month at 3:00 pm in room “B” at the Arbor Club Conference Center. The third Tuesday of the month is a field trip to a venue with good photographic opportunities. There is no meeting on the fourth Tuesday.

Our photos are displayed at Freedom Library and Master the Possibilities educational center. The great feedback we receive from those venues encourages us to keep shooting and learning.

The ShutterBugs annual exhibit is held in November. The photos are entered and judged in different categories: novice, intermediate, advanced, master, and modified, plus a “changing” category. Three top winners and three honorable mentions are awarded ribbons in each category. We also allow the community to vote for their favorite, or as we call it, the “People’s Choice.”

If you are interested in photography, come to a couple of meetings and see what we are all about.

Growth – Vision - Knowledge
