Our speaker for our February meeting is Karen McKinnon and the topic will be portraits.  Karen is one of Canada’s leading portrait photographers and will talk primarily about children’s portraits.  Click on the photo to the right to visit Karen’s website.  Karen also conducts training sessions with Boomer Jerritt at illuminateeducate.com

Following the break and the club’s business review, we will have the slideshow for our field trip to Paramount Orchids and our assignment of Frost / Icing.

Our general meetings are held on the first Wednesday of the month from 7:00 pm until 9:00 pm. We normally conduct the club’s business, then review the slideshows from the previous month’s assignment, field trip and favourite shot of the month. The last half of the meeting is dedicated to having a speaker come and make a presentation or discuss some aspects of their photography

We generally meet at the venue at 10am and shoot until 12 then those who wish to do so gather at the chosen lunch venue.  Check the details for the field trip outing.

Meet with other members and try a range of different shots. Test some new post processing techniques. Pick about 6 of the most interesting and size them to within 1600 pixels wide and 1200 pixels high. When you have your field trip photos ready, send them to fieldtrip.opc@gmail.com

There are day long festivities to celebrate the lunar new year in Cumberland.  This is the Year of the Sheep.  Starting at 10:00 there are displays at the Recreational Centre.  About 6:00, there is a ‘Parade of Light’ and that will be followed by the release of lanterns and a fireworks show.

If you plan on going, you might want to think about making carpool arrangements with other members, especially if you are staying after dark.
