Friday Night Gang Get Together

For around 34 years a group of friends have been getting together on Friday nights to socialize. It started after some high school friends graduated and there new co-worker friends got together on Friday nights at a place called Pappy's Pizza (which no longer exists). We recently got together on a Saturday night so some who can't come out Fridays could reunite. It was a fun evening.

We have new people joining us from time to time ...

... and the long time friends reunite!

We are planning a picnic get together to include all our children and grandchildren this summer.

Other future events will be meeting on Friday mornings for breakfast when we retire! And we plan to all go to the same retirement home!

WELCOME

Hello, glad you could find the time to visit! The Clicks Of My Shutter welcomes you to a photo journal of things happening around me, places I go, sometime just to take photos. I am an amature photographer who likes taking photos more than people like looking at them!! Most of the photos can be viewed larger, I keep them pretty small for easier uploading. Remember you can look at older posts by clicking the older posts link at the end of the page. All photography is copyrighted automatically but I don't mind if you use my photos for yourself, all I ask is if you use them on another website give credit where credit is due. If you are thinking of family or other photos, e-mail me at debapaka@aol.com Thanks for visiting!

~ What To Wear ~

I found this on the Web and thought it was usefull! Photographers shooting a traditional family portrait will suggest that members wear a uniform color that the entire clan feels comfortable in. The safest colors are solid muted tones that don't distract from a person's face. Suggested color "dos" include: •Brown •Blue •Rust •Burgundy •Mocha •Hunter green •Gold Conversely, there are a number of colors that you shouldn't sport on family picture day. Some color "don'ts" include: •Purple •All neon or fluorescent colors •Bright red •Bright green •Gray In addition, individuals with fair skin should avoid wearing flesh-tones, such as: •Beige •Tan •Peach •Pink •Bright white •Yellow •Rose •Apricot Black is a controversial color in the world of family portraits. Some photographers recommend wearing black during formal shoots, though most pro shooters tell their clients to avoid wearing black in family portraits because the color may cause lighting issues. Extreme contrasts are to be avoided at all costs during photo shoots, especially when multiple subjects are involved. You're better off sticking with neutral colors that will accentuate your natural features.
