GA 20/30 Photo Safari Friday #1

Welcome to your first Photo Safari.

What is a Phot Safari?

Most of us know that the word, “photography” means “writing with light.” The dictionary definition of “safari” includes these phrases:

• a journey or expedition, for hunting, exploration, or investigation
  
• any long or adventurous journey or expedition 
  

 

Discover Your “Why” for a Photo Safari

What is your purpose?


You will take part in each photo safari as a group of 4-6 people.  Everyone will have the same task of capturing the weeks topic, as well you must record the safari. Remember you are writing with light, not words. So to capture the safari you need to capture what happened, process, reactions of people, recording the journey, etc.

Each of you will be responsible to make a blog post on your blog that records your involvement in the photo safari. When you are finished go to the Photo Safari Blog and leave a comment under this weeks post. In your comment you must include a link to your blog post about the photo safari.
