Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 a Publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs
Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 A publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs Copyright 2008. All rights reserved. May not be reproduced or copied in any manner whatsoever. 1 Preface This field trips guide book has been written by Dave Carter and Ed Funk of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society, NVPS. Both are experienced and successful field trip organizers. Joseph Miller, NVPS, coordinated the printing and production of this guide book. In our view, field trips can provide an excellent opportunity for camera club members to find new subject matter to photograph, and perhaps even more important, to share with others the love of making pictures. Photography, after all, should be enjoyable. The pleasant experience of an outing together with other photographers in a picturesque setting can be stimulating as well as educational. It is difficullt to consistently arrange successful field trips, particularly if the club's membership is small. We hope this guide book will allow camera club members to become more active and involved in field trip activities. There are four camera clubs that make up the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs McLean, Manassas-Warrenton, Northern Virginia and Vienna. All of these clubs are located within 45 minutes or less from each other. It is hoped that each club will be receptive to working together to plan and conduct field trip activities. There is an enormous amount of work to properly arrange and organize many field trips, and we encourage the field trips coordinator at each club to maintain close contact with the coordinators at the other clubs in the Alliance and to invite members of other clubs to join in the field trip. -
The History of Unions in the US Class 1: Origins
A Tour of the US Service Academies Class 3: US Naval Academy Jim Dunphy [email protected] USNA History • Traditionally, naval officers served as midshipmen aboard naval vessels • These could be as young as 10 or as old as 40 History • West Point was founded in 1802, but no naval equivalent was considered for many years thereafter. • The catalyst for the USNA was the Somers affair Somers Affair • In 1842, Philip Spencer, the son of the Secretary of War, was serving aboard the USS Somers as a Midshipman • Finding out about a possible mutiny, he notified the purser Somers Affair • The rumor went up the chain to the ship’s Captain, Alexander McKenzie • He did not take any immediate action, but put both Spencer and the crew under surveillance • It was found that Spencer was having secret meetings with the crew and his diary had Greek symbols • This was probably because he was a member of a Greek fraternity at Union College before going to sea Somers Affair • Later, a mast failed and damaged some sails, a huge problem for a ship at sea • A number of thefts led to floggings • Captain McKenzie ordered his four officers and three senior midshipmen to investigate • They concluded that Spencer and two other crew members were planning to take over the ship • The same day the report was made, all three were hung and buried at sea Somers Affair • Spencer’s father, the Secretary of War, obviously had power over this issue • While a naval court martial exonerated Captain Mackenzie, the general public remained skeptical about the idea of midshipmen at sea -
