The public is invited to a photo walk with professional photographer Al Griffin at Bennett Spring State Park. The walk will start at 5 p.m. on April 8 at the park’s nature center.
Griffin will lead the walk, which is open to anyone interested in taking better pictures of the natural beauty in the Ozarks. As a professional photographer, Griffin's commercial work has been published in various magazines and his fine art images have been exhibited in New York City
The event is designed to allow participants to move along one of the many trails in the park where there are plenty of photo subjects such as plants, insects or animals. Participants are encouraged to bring a camera, dress appropriate for outdoor weather and wear comfortable shoes. The walk will end with a question and answer session about the successes and challenges encountered during the walk.
