CfceSMAPSHOT GUILD WINTER PICTURE PLANS Elephants on the piano key*--a simple, neat, and amusing shot of the "table-top" type. Table-topping is a good snapshot specialty--and there are many others. if F)R years I have been suggesting that every uifiateur adopt a snapshot specialty--and now I And I have made two converts at home. Jack tup decided to specialise to table-top pictures for the rest of this winter, and Ann Is going to Bake a snapshot biography of the family pup. The choices are wise, I think, for the winter months. Both offer plenty of interesting opportunities--and plenty of material. We have an attic fall of discarded toya. to keep Jack busy; and as tor Ann's prospects-- the pap Is never the same two days in succession. 8o. by the time warm weather comes, her "puppy book" should be la fine shap~. 1 can think of many other winter snapshot specialties--some of which might appeal to you more than these--such as character studies, costume pictures, story-telling pictore "sequences." a snapshot story «f the whole family's winter activities, or even the story of Just one member. If there's a young baby in your family, of course you already have a specialty--the day-to-day story of his antics, and his reactions to this funny world. No matter who you are. there's some specialty ready to hand, that will add fun to the winter's picture taking. The big advantage of a specialty is that It helps yon get picture ideaa Tou take one shot--and you think of two others, a bit different or a bit better. Jack finds this to be true, time after time,' when he's arranging his table-top scenes. The toy mouse runs away from a toy cat in one. picture, and is used to frighten a wide-eyed doll In the next shot. And the salt that makes such floe snow. In one scene, makes a marvelous, sandy beach In another. In Ann's case, one picture also bringB Ideas for others. As she looks st each group of puppy snapshots, she sees gaps that need to be filled in. to improve the story . And she's learning a lot about taking good pictures of animals and petsknowledge she can apply later. -U works that way with every snap> shot specialty--which, alone. Is a good reason foY you to choose a specialty right now. John van Guilder Rothermel. Raymond Baer of Chicago was a caller in the Paul Gerasch home last Friday.
