All levels of photography and equipment are welcome (cell phones, etc.). Following each field trip, class sessions/lessons are held in the ACC Computer Lab to touch up, enhance, etc. the photos and submit them to print services. Afterwards the prints are matted and posted to the Gallery walls. Field Trips and carpools are usually announced to members or interested parties . The club also provides occasional photo-video support for some of ACC events. Contact: jeff.n.jong@gmail.com or jung95831@sbcglobal.net. FREE
