Insect/Photography Talk! Monday, 2/3, Columbus

I'm giving a talk next Monday, February 3, for the Westbridge Camera Club. The venue is Midwest Photo, the legendary Columbus camera store at 2887 Silver Drive, Columbus, 43211. Midwest moved to this bigger and better facility a few years ago, and they've got a great conference room with topnotch AV for talks.

Westbridge Camera Club welcomes guests, so I'm inviting you. The festivities commence at 7 pm, and more details ARE HERE. I'm going to weave together a pictorial tale of insects great and small, how they underpin food webs, and their importance. Spiced throughout will be tips and thoughts on creating better imagery, and effective methods for finding various bugs. Assembling this talk has been a nice diversion from a bug-free blah winter, and hopefully talk attendees will also be transported away from winter for a bit.

Hope to see you there!
