This will be a fun photo walk through the historic village of Chepachet, RI. While on the walk we will practice composition, exposure, and focusing techniques. You will learn to make quick exposure adjustments as we move in and outdoors.

The village will be decorated for Halloween with scarecrows throughout the village. Plus there are plenty of quaint shops with interesting antiques to photograph.

This photo walk will require at least 2 people to register to run. If it rains, it will be rescheduled to the next Saturday, when they will have a Trick or Treat event from 12-3 pm. Kids will be in costumes and the town will still be decorated.
