During the day we spent time shooting along the coast and in small villages this was taken in the late afternoon. I appreciate a comment I heard when chasing the Aurora to “Be sure to go somewhere that has other things to do and see so that the lights are a bonus.” We saw the lights but they weren’t spectacular. However, the rest of the countryside didn’t disappoint as seen in the image.”

The Huntsville Photographic Society has been promoting the art of photography in north Alabama for over 40 years. Our members include students, amateurs, and professionals with a wide range of interests that span nearly the complete gamut of photography. Our interests and expertise include print, digital, B&W and color, darkroom, portraiture, macro, landscape, abstract, light painting, architecture, aerial, astro, and 3D.
“To photograph truthfully and effectively is to see beneath the surface and record the qualities of nature and humanity which live or are latent in all things.” – Ansel Adams
We enjoy sharing our ideas and work at regular meetings where we focus on composition, technique, processing and post-processing, old and new equipment, education, photo opportunities and expeditions. We are a competitive bunch, and we especially enjoy presenting our best work each month for critical evaluation by our peers and external judges. Examples of some of our members’ work can be found throughout this site, at exhibitions in the Huntsville area, as well as in the Huntsville Museum of Art.
