Weekend

Greetings, volks. Welcome to Hohenfels Volks, THE place for our place! I hope everyone in Hohenfels is ready for the weekend. The clouds are out, with their full range and the skies are moody, it’s the perfect time for photos!

Just a quick tips for all of planning to shoot outside this weekend. Bring a clear shower cap and a couple zip lock bags. The shower cap can be used to keep your camera dry during a surprise rain shower, and the zip locks can be used to keep your spare batteries and lenses dry if you use the 1-gallon size.

With the onset of wet weather, it pays to be prepared and have a way to keep your expensive gear dry. The savings could be quite substantial! That doesn’t even take into account your stress level and disappointment.

Keep your eyes open to scenes that include lots of clouds, they’ll bring interest to an otherwise flat landscape. Another great thing about lots of clouds is the soft light they produce when shooting people outside.

Enjoy the weekend and keep shooting. I hope everyone will post at least 1 pic from this weekend, I know we’d all like to see your work!

I’d love to know what you think and what you’re doing with your photography. Where are you headed, and is there anything you’d like to see here? Share your thoughts here or at the Hohenfels Volks Facebook page. Of course, commenting on both Facebook and here is always appreciated, too! Don't forget, we're on Google+, too!
