of the better angles from
which to photograph scenic
Washington.
Note Shadow Angles
When you study some Of
the photos that will appear
note particularly the angle
from which the light comes
how shadows. judiciously
used, will sometimes be the
making Of a picture that
without them might result
in a monotone shot Of little
or no interest. Also notice
the camera angle. Some
scenes photograph better
from a low angle while others
make better pictures from a
high camera position.
Time OF DAY Tor shooting
Washington scenes is i'm
portant for another reason
besides lighting. TRAFFIC con-
ditions often prevent the TAX
ing Of good pictures.
These and many more
pointers will be passed along
to you in this Washington

us say that We hope that this
feature will be helpful and
stimulating to those VINO have

A Scent stamp commence
rating the Flushing Remon-
STRANGE and honoring relig-
ious freedom in America will
be issued December 81 at
Flushing. Long Island. Post
master General Summerheld
announced last week.
The remonstrance has been
described as the first declara-
ton of religious liberation
by any group of citizens in
American history.
Flushing had been settled
In l645 by a group Of Eng
lishmen under Dutch char
ter guaranteeing liberty Of
conscience. A new Dutch
Governor. Peter Stuyvesant,
in 1856 banned the practice
Of any religion except the
Dutch Reformed. The fol-
lowing year he prohibited the
harboring Of a Quaker, even
for a single night. under
penalty of a fine of so forms.
FreeholderS Of Flushing
were indignant at the in
tolerance of the Governor
and the infringement on the
rights guaranteed by their
charter. Town Clerk Edward
Hart drafted their protest,
which concluded firmly,
Therefore If any of these
come in love unto us,
We cannot in conscience lay
violent hands upon them.
but give them free egreSSe
and regreSse unto our Town,
and houses. as God shall per-
suade our conSciences."
The remonStrance was for
mally approved in open
meeting and signed by Hart.

Quakers continued to be

One reason that so many
Of our scenic spots do not
look as well in a picture as
in the original form Is the
fact that too few people con-
slider the time of day when
they make an exposure. If
pictures are taken of a white
building at high noon the
result is more apt than not
TO be fiat and unintereSting.
The same building captured
on film early in the morning
or in late afternoon will very
likely take on a different
aspect.
Filter Records Clouds
A common thing such as
a G or A filter can make a
big difference. When you look
at a monument. other shrine,
or building your eyes take
in the clouds that help make
the scene beautiful. But your
camera will not pick up these
clouds with monochrome
film unless you place a fl
ter over the lens.
The position you take up
with your camera can easily
be the difference between q
