For interested photographers, the Rochester Chapter NRHS is planning another night photo session, weather permitting, as part of the events for the August Rochester Chapter meeting on August 20, 2009 at the Chapter's Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum. The meeting will start around 6PM and will feature operations of the museum's railroad equipment collection. Visitors are always welcome!

For those who wish to participate in the night session, there is no rubber tired vehicle access to the shoot so we will be heading up by train from the R&GVRRM Industry depot around 7:45PM to get setup. If you want to participate, please come to the R&GVRRM and be ready to go around 7:45. In addition to their camera capable of a bulb (b) exposure, participants should bring a tripod, cable release and a flashlight to aid in walking. The areas we will be shooting may also be a little muddy so please dress appropriately. We are going to also ask a $5.00 donation to the museum from each photographer to help offset the costs of operating the equipment for the session. Anyone wishing to just observe can do so for free!

We hope to see you out at the meeting & the night photo session!
