Vol. 2 No. 33
I promised to post some images from our members that attended last Sunday's 5Pointz photo walk. More are added to the LensCapture Flickr® Group everyday, so picking just a few is real tough, but here goes.

If you get a chance, you must visit 5Pointz in Long Island City, Queens. The artwork is spectacular, and the Aerosol Arts Center's collection is in a state of flux. I have visited the location 3 times in as many weeks and have been amazed at seeing new masterpieces on every visit.
Have a great Labor Day Holiday and don't forget to bring the camera along.

I have scheduled a very special photo walk for Sunday, August 29, 2010 to 5Pointz in Long Island City, Queens. Considered to be the world's premiere "graffiti Mecca," where aerosol artist from around the world paint colorful works of art adorning the exterior of an entire city block.
We'll meet at 1:00 PM for this 2 hour subject-rich walk capturing brilliantly colored murals and striking master artistry that covers this outdoor exhibit space. During this event, I'll provide tips for properly capturing this vivid artwork.
While this photo walk experience is free, 5Pointz survives through visitor donations. So I ask all participating to be generous during our visit and make a small offering, or buy the merchandise (t-shirts, hats, etc.) available onsite. Your generosity will allow this 5-story, block long, outdoor art exhibit to continue its mission of uniting talented aerosol artists so they may continue displaying their magnificent work.
