Join Friends of the Wissahickon Trail Ambassador Bruce Wagner at REI Conshohocken when he presents his extraordinary nature photos on Monday, September 24, 2012, at 7:00 p.m.
Nature Photography in the Wissahickon is a slide show of nine different flowers in their natural and original settings. Photographer Bruce Wagner illustrates the metamorphosis that occurs in his mind, illustrating the inner spirit of his experience. In his words: "I find each exploration a kind of spiritual search, and each iteration of the particular flower a different expression of my visit to the Valley." The slide show program is approximately one hour.
REI is located at 200 West Ridge Pike, Suite 115, Conshohocken, PA 19428.

Meet at The Cedars House on Forbidden Drive near Northwestern Ave. in Chestnut Hill at 10 a.m. Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours. The hike will leave from Cedars House, go to the Covered Bridge along the Orange Trail, and return either along Forbidden
Drive or along a different woodsy trail. On the walk, participants will be on the lookout for photographic settings to be enjoyed as they are or as they might be used for impressionistic photos. Cameras are encouraged, but not
