Night time Photography & Interest Groups (SIGS)

Rick Horte is planning on having a “Night Shoot” following Jack Harynuk’s talk from the General Meeting. We will be using Jack techniques for night time photography, so bring your camera and tripod. Come fully prepared to be OUTSIDE for a portion of this meeting. Also, come prepared with any ideas for SIGs you may wish to be involved in.

The agenda for the night is simple, start the meeting, SIGs for 15 minutes, review of night shooting and then head out. We won’t be returning to the Civic Centre and will disperse from the shooting location. No coffee! Photos from the night shoot to be sent to Rick Horte at rjhorte@shaw.ca I’ll attempt to show them at the General Meeting in April.

Ensure you are warmly dressed
