HUPS Workshop Field Trip & Brunch

2nd Annual
Smell the Flowers w/ a Macro Lens
Sunday May 1, 2011
EARLY!!! 8:00am-10:00am EARLY!!!

Come on out to the ENCHANTED GARDENS early on the morning of on May 1st, 2011 (Rain Date to be announced on the forum will be May 8th) to practice your macro shots with fellow HUPS members. David Lenderman’s family owns this beautiful nursery outside of Richmond. For those of you that attended last year, this is not the same place as we went last year so listen up below for new directions. The nursery is packed with display gardens, flowers, water features, insects, bugs and the like. Here is the web site: http://www.myenchanted.com/. To get a feel for the place look at this page and click on the photo gallery at the bottom: http://www.myenchanted.com/enchanted_garden_nursery.htm . It is a great place to photograph flowers, butterflies and other insects. We have arranged to have HUPS members come out at 8:00 am on Sunday May 1st before the nursery opens at 10:00am. This will allow HUPS folks to run around, set up tripods or whatever without bothering or being bothered by customers.

After you're tired of shooting bug pictures, David has invited the group over to his place for a pot luck Sunday brunch. He lives 5 minutes away from the nursery and will provide all the plates, flatware and napkins, coffee, juice etc. If everyone attending would bring a covered dish it will be a very nice social gathering for all. More info to follow as we get closer to the date.

The nursery is located at: ENCHANTED GARDENS
6420 FM 359 (Intersection of FM359 & FM723)
RICHMOND, TX 77469
281-341-1206

Here is a link to get Google directions but again remember this is Enchanted Gardens and NOT the other Enchanted location in Booth we went to last year.
