An enthusiastic group of Wassenberg Camera Club members met Thursday, Feb. 14, at the Wassenberg Art Center to compete in prints and slides. Still Life was the theme and a large number of worthy pictures were submitted, which was evident by the high number of tie-breaker votes that were required to select the winners.<\/p>\n

Will Hawkins of Van Wert again swept the print category with two creative pictures of pencils. First place was of a recently sharpened pencil and second place was of a pencil in a glass of water.<\/p>\n

First place honors in slides went to Doug Heckler of Van Wert for his picture of a twin lens reflex camera and boxes of film. Rex Dolby of Van Wert took second in slides with picture of old coins on green velvet.<\/p>\n

President Will Hawkins reported that the possible lunch with Joel Sartore, National Geographic photographer at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center has not been finalized and if 10 or more members could attend, there would be some reduction in cost.<\/p>\n

The Wassenberg Camera Club has received calls to have another open Question and Answer meeting concerning photography and equipment. This meeting would be held on Thursday, Feb. 28, at 7 p.m. at the Wassenberg Art Center. The meeting would be free, open to the public, and there would be no obligation to join the club. Those having questions are asked to bring their equipment and owner’s manuals.<\/p>\n
