Camp SSTAR Outcomes - The Photographers

Throughout the week it was the goal of the photography group to capture the events of camp as well as explore the world of photography. Logan, Kelly and Jacob each had their own camera to experiment with as our group walked the Heartspring campus and took photos of nature and objects in motion. We also spent some time on the computer looking at different ways to manipulate an image by playing with color, type and resolution. Jacob was definitely the most artistic photographer, taking photos of the most indiscrete objects that later turned in to very interesting photos. Logan was the action photographer and was not afraid to get in the middle of a game of tag or water. Kelly was the nature photographer and was very excited when we discovered algae eating fish in the Heartspring Lake. He even took several small videos with his camera throughout the week. Andrew from the Editors group joined us for the last two days of the week and was enthusiastic and excelled as a photographer. Another aspect of our week was joining the Editors for many games and activities. This gave the Photographers an opportunity to enjoy the traditional activities of camp while still using their photography skills to make sure all events were documented. After camp, a yearbook was created that showcased their photos and provided all campers with a keepsake that will remind them of their time at Camp SSTAR for years to come.
