IV. OBJECTIVE:
● To let the SQU members show interests in Science in harnessing their
photography skills by capturing unusual and uncommon species that can be
found in their localities.
V. INTRODUCTION:
We tend to take pictures of ourselves, nature, environment and some random
things around us. We make use of our gadgets to capture images of life and other things
that we usually see. As we celebrate Science Month, this could be a perfect activity for
you to go out and see for yourself unique species in your area. By sharing it to the
Questers, it will eventually feed everyone’s scientific side and also allow you to introduce
to us your locale’s abundance of life.
