Meet at the Haul’s parking lot at 5th and H. 2pm.
Let’s see if we can all find and photograph a fun list of things in and around our town. Everyone gets the list and can go anywhere, by any means to find the things on the list. We’ll all meet back up in about an hour to see what we found. Hope to see you this Sat.!

Congratulations! Dale on a beautiful image. Dale’s image will be printed in the Daily Courier. Below find out a little about Dale and this amazing shot.
I joined the Caveman Camera Club in 2013 to be around other like-minded photographers and to broaden my skills. Always looking for new challenges, I decided to try my hand at high magnification macro photography. I needed an interesting subject, and flies being particularly plentiful, it seemed like a good subject.
This image is 43 images stacked one on top of another. Extreme magnification images have a shallow depth of focus, so multiple photos are taken to bring the whole image into focus, exposing all the disgusting details of the fly. This image is taken at 5x magnification and no cropping. I used a Canon 5D Mk IV camera and Canon MP-E65 macro lens.
This was set up and photographed on my dining room table, and took about 3 hours from start to finish to render this final image. Not an easy process, but for a photographer…well worth the effort for a good image.
Our November Competition meeting will take place on Nov. 14th instead of Nov. 21st so all that Holiday travel, pie making and family/friends gathering can happen unencumbered. Mark your calendars.
Last minute afternoon field trip to Lithia Park in Ashland. It has the chinese garden, a couple of nice ponds, a beautiful stream and lots of fall color. Lets meet at the Applebee’s parking lot (but closer to Big Lots) in Grants Pass at 3 pm this Sunday. This is just a short afternoon outing and the weather should be beautiful. If you haven’t been there before, it is well worth checking out. I’m not sure if the leaves will be at their peak or not, but if you like the place you can always go back. It’s less than an hour away.
