Adventure Photography and Photo Walks

Monday

Vero Beach Halloween Costume Parade

“Great weather, better shots taken when the kids are just coming in and scattered, parents most welcoming, good to have a number of cameras at one time gives the subjects a feeling the
paparazzi are there.”

Roger T. Sobkowiak

“The weather was perfect. There were many children with very imaginative costumes all sizes and ages. Lots of photo ops everywhere.......”

Carolyn Shafer

“We had fun although the parade didn't seem to be as big or last as long as last year”
J. Scott Kelly

Cracker Boy Boat Yard

Adventure Photography and Photo Walks set off early Saturday morning to capture more beautiful images of objects in disrepair! This photo walk brought us to the Cracker Boy Boat Yard and it proved to be another great Photographic Adventure!

Here are just a few images and comments from our enthusiasts!

“The boat yard was great, lots of colors, patterns, and shapes to photograph, I thought it was wonderful.”

Carolyn Shafer

“Boats, boats and even some boats.”
Bruce Weissman

“This was a great opportunity for a wide variety of images!”

Claudette Delanoeye

“Allot of open space, providing plenty of angles to shoot the boats. Cordial workers who did not mind having their photos taken while they worked. Plenty of equipment and tools around to provide good combinations for imaginative photos.”
Roger Sobkowiak

“The boat yard proved to have great potential. Even though it was a small yard and out of season (not to many boats), everyone seemed to keep their creative juices flowing!”
J. Scott Kelly

“Lots of great options for photographs at the boat yard and in the area. I'm still reviewing and processing images. :D ”
Dawn Currie

“I loved all the textures, from peeling paint to rotting wood to rusting metals. Very cool! Glad it was cloudy!”
Janice Reynolds

“This was a really fun shoot lots to look at and photograph. I don't know how Scott continues to come up with all these great places to photograph. Thanks Scott for your creative dedication.”

No Junkyard...No Problem!

We embarked on a trip to the local junkyard with an appointment for 9am on Sunday morning, but 18 Adventures were stood up by the "MAN WITH THE KEY"! We missed out on the junkyard and he missed out on some fat cash.

In true form of our group, we set off for another bunch of junk....the local closed down citrus packing plant. With no trespassing signs posted we dared no go beyond the fence, but we were still able to obtain some great images!

“ Didn't work out as planned due to circumstances beyond our control but we made lemonade out of lemons and The group rolled well with the punches. That's one of the reasons this is such a great meetup group. ” Bruce Weissman

“ Since the fellow with the key to the Junkyard failed to show up we moved the meetup to another location with some old machinery. ” Carolyn Shafer

“ This is why our group is called Adventure Photography!! Not what we planned but a great shoot none the less. Great to see new faces hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did. ”
Nancy True

“ GREAT SHOWING of our enthusiasts!! Too bad the gate keeper was a no show, but in true fashion of our members we made "LEMONADE" ! Moving to the abandoned packing plant turned out to be just as good if not better. So far I have seen some very "CREATIVE EYES" for such a small area that we were able to work in! THANK YOU for your understanding of the situation that was out of my control. "OUR MEMBERS ARE FANTASTIC!"
J. Scott Kelly

“ Even tho the schmuks did not show up, I am glad we made an alternative plan and am grateful to everyone who helps me out! ” Selene
