Located on the East Coast of Vancouver Island, Canada. With beautiful views, Deep Bay Harbour is convenient to boaters traveling Georgia Straight, the Gulf Islands, and Baynes Sound, or on their way to and from Desolation Sound and points north. It is home to a commercial fishing and aquaculture fleet, and a large number of pleasure craft.
Note: There are plenty of opportunities for wildlife, seascapes and landscapes photography. Check out the wildlife at the end of the spit or wander the docks or just savour the scenery. The lunch restaurant is located on site which mean NO extra driving.
Special: Lorene has promised us a treat and great opportunity for wildlife photographers. Can’t say what it is but be their for the experience.
Lunch: Is at the Ship & Shore restaurant on the Deep Bay Marina 12:00. The reservation is for inside the restaurant, so if its hot, or windy or raining (heaven forbid) we’ll be comfortable.
Your field trip photos are now uploaded to the website using the upload in the members database. Up to 5 images can be uploaded.

Our speaker this month is Cim McDonald who is coming up from Chemainus where she is the Curator of the Chemainus Festival of Murals Society. She is a fine art photographer and artist who has won many awards. Her topic for our meeting is the relationship of line and colour to art.

We are participating again this year and we’re taking a slightly different approach. You’ll be able to upload 3 images in any of the categories. Also, voting will be open until early November and you will be permitted to vote for your own image. Since only one image per member may be submitted, there will be some additional judging to choose the top 8 images.
As a club we did well in 2016 and placed third in mammals. We’ll try to do better this year.
The categories are:
Look through your shots and be certain there is no ‘hand of man’ in the image. Images have a maximum width of 1400 pixels and maximum height of 1050 pixels. Images have to be uploaded by October 21st.
When the current year rules are prepared, they will be added. Click on the image or here to see the rules
This is a unique opportunity for the photography produced by your members to be judged by some of the best nature photographers in Canada.
