Calling All Photographers: Lakes Photo Club Wants Winter Hill Country Shots




Whether you're a seasoned photographer, only just took up the hobby, or still haven't decided whether or not to take the plunge and buy your first DSLR, Marble Falls' Lakes Photo Club welcomes you to its first annual meeting of 2015.

Mike Childers and others founded the club a few years back to promote growth in budding photographers in the area. "There are people who want to go out and take snapshots and that’s it. They aren’t looking for anything else, and they’re happy with that," Childers told The Picayune. "That’s okay. But for others who are looking to become better, the club is a chance to do just that."

At the club's open meeting on February 5, members and non-members alike are invited to bring along some of their best holiday and winter-themed images to share with the group. Members will provide valuable constructive feedback on every photograph designed to help all in attendance become better photographers. 

Snow and ice, Christmas lights, fall colors, and family gatherings are all fodder for great winter images, Childers says, and submitted images do not need to have originated in Texas.

The meeting will be held on February 5 at The Falls on the Colorado Museum (2001 S Broadway) in Marble Falls. To find out more, email Mike Childers at [email protected]

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 24)

FAIR. Water stained; 74 degrees; 0.27 feet below pool. Crappie are fair in 10-20 feet of water on brush piles with chartreuse jigs. Report by Jess Rotherham, Texas Crappie Fishing Service. Bass are good with a few fish on beds, but there are still plenty in the backs of pockets so use shallow moving baits like a wake bait, swimbait or frog to get some of those good ones. Skipping docks is always a good way to load the boat too using a weightless wacky worm or a jig to get some good bites. Do not forget to run the bulkheads with a shallow crank, fluke or frog. Report by Bryan Cotter, Texas Hawgs.
