On Thursday night 5 February 2026 we will host a Hands On Night at the Severna Park Baptist Church starting at 7:00 PM. Due to the nature of this activity, we will not be live streaming to FaceBook.

The objective of Hands On Night is for club members to bring their cameras and practice, to get some practical experience. More experienced club members will assist newer club members to share tips and tricks to improve their photography. If you are lucky, you will come away with some images that are good enough to enter into contest. Many images from previous Hands On Nights have gone on to win contests.

For this Hands On Night we are focusing on the February theme of water and the April theme of Abstract.

Equipment: Bring your cameras, batteries, and memory cards. If you have them bring lights, tripods, cable releases.

Props: Flowers and food are always popular. Backdrops and tablecloths can be useful. What can you bring for the theme of water? Water bottles, drip/spash high speed capture setups, water reflections, water tanks, crinkled foil, fabric scraps, bubble wrap, netting, mirrors and mirror pieces, colored plexi and acrylic sheets, spray bottles, old CDs and DVDs, oil and water, food coloring, feathers, crayons, colored pencils, etc. Use your imagination.
