DESCRIPTION:
\n
Our speaker this month is Ron Brandner a member of the Port Alberni
photo club. The purpose of his talk is to discuss how the hobby of photog
raphy has enhanced both his physical and mental health. As a senior\, heal
th issues are becoming more and more prevalent and he is finding photograp
hy is becoming more of a medication than a hobby.
\nHe has been makin
g images for over 60 years and over that period has garnered a lot of usef
ul information from a great number of sources that have helped him adjust
his practice of photography to suit his changing needs.
\nHe is grate
ful to those who have shared their wisdom with him and has compiled a list
of the more important ideas. Hopefully there will be some that will be o
f benefit to Oceanside photographers.
\n
We will be showing our slide
shows from last month’s assignment\, the favourites and the field trip.
