Rannie “Photojunkie” Turingan has a new project called “Portraits in the Park”. I’ll let him do the talking…

It’s my pleasure to officially announce a new project called “Portraits

in the Park”. Starting next week, once a week, throughout the summer, I

will set up shop at one of our local parks armed with a tripod and my

Yashica Mat 124G. At the beginning of each week, I will announce a

location and time where I will be shooting.

I will take photos of any and all willing participants. One shot per

person. Come in costume, come dressed up, come as you are, just come to

the park. I will do this as a free service to all who participate, but

I will accept a suggested 5 dollar donations for each portrait [for

film and processing]. Each participant will recieve a copy of their

photo and a scan.

If you want to get in on this cool project (I think Wendy

and I will do so during the week she’s here, later this month), your

next opportunity is tonight at Bellevue Park in the Kensington Market area between 5:30 and 7:30.
