Camera bug cap tures girls From nothing, Photography Club developed into one of the most active clubs of the year. Speakers came, discussing such topics as picture composition and the art of lighting. From enlarger to developer to stop-bath to fixer - the techniques soon became familiar ones. Enlarging pictures they took on field trips, as well as some for Verbum, gave members a chance to put their knowledge to work. Touring Dellarson gave them the professional angle of photography. Going commercial, they took pictures with props at the Spring Festival Though there were some failures, members knew that basically they had the ability to make their memories last.
