Hagerman NWR is a magnet for photographers ? there is always something different to see and to photograph, depending on the season, the time of day, and the weather. Now the Friends of Hagerman are starting a Nature Photo Club. An organizational meeting will be held on Saturday, December 12, at 12:30 p.m., in the Audio Visual classroom at the Refuge, which is located at 6465 Refuge Road, Sherman, Texas, 75092. The meeting will be open to the public, and those attending the morning nature program that day are welcome to bring a brown bag lunch.
Earlier that same day a slide show representative of pictures taken at the Autumn Photo Safari on the Refuge will be presented at 9:30 a.m. in the Audio Visual Classroom at the Refuge. The Refuge and the Friends have sponsored two Photo Safaris this year. Small groups, led by experienced photographers have gone out to ?shoot? and then turned in the resulting pix for inclusion in a power point ?virtual gallery?. The most recent Photo Safari was held October 24.
The first annual Hagerman NWR Photo Contest is coming up soon; entries will be accepted from January 3 ? March 1, 2010. Rules and entry forms are available at the Visitor Center at the Refuge, or on-line at www.friendsofhagerman.com (see the NEWS page for Photography at Hagerman NWR).
In addition to the wildlife, the Refuge and the Friends of Hagerman offer a number of other special activities for photographers. There are periodic programs on photography as part of the Second Saturday Nature Program Series. The Photographer of the Month program features an album of twelve photos taken at the Refuge, on the Friends of Hagerman website. Photographers who are on Facebook are invited to become fans of the Friends of Hagerman Facebook page and post photos taken at the Refuge.
