Get together with old friends and make some new ones as we explore the sights and sounds that Rochester, NY has to offer. Learn new methods to make panoramic images. Look into the past and see how panoramic imaging has evolved since its beginnings. We look forward to meeting you.
This will be a better season to photographically experience Rochester and the surrounding areas. Fall colors should be showing by this time.We appreciate all of our members concerns and will continue to address them as they arise.
