PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS MEETING IS ON NOVEMBER 8th!

Our speaker for November is Gordon Howe.  His presentation is “From Sea to Sky- A natural history journey from British Columbia to the high deserts of the American southwest.”

Gordon is a prize-winning photographer who has lived all over British Columbia. He currently resides near Nanaimo on Vancouver Island.

He attended the School of Modern Photography and has worked professionally as a Portrait and Wedding Photographer. Throughout his life Gordon has always had a camera in hand but his love of photography was shared with a love of horticulture and landscape design. Both of these disciplines share a need for a comprehensive understanding of light, colour and composition. Training in both fields has served to complement each other.

 
We will be showing our Favourites from October, our field trip outing to the Raptor Centre and the Fall Colours assignment

Bring your loonie for a coffee.

Come out and join us at this very unique store.  You want it they have it and even if you aren’t looking for it they have that too.  There is an area inside the store and also a large lot outside with lots of items in it just waiting for a photographer to come and take a pic or two.

Please note the new time:  11am

Lunch will be at 12:30 at the Sandbar Restaurant in Qualicum Bay

This month is our Christmas social evening. We are repeating last year’s approach and assisting the Food Bank. 

You know that we are trying to be more connected to the community and with that in mind we are asking that you, if you are able, bring a donation for the Food Bank.  The Food Bank prefers receiving money and they have excellent buyers.  Nick Bosma will have a collection box for cash and cheques.  Please make cheques to the Food Bank.

The club is providing coffee, tea and snacks.

We do not have a speaker and will have a short business review followed by slideshows of the field trip to the Bowser Antique Yard, the Emotion assignment. We will also show the Best of 2017 images that our members have sent in.

This is a reminder to upload your assignment photos to the member database by the 20th.

Cabela’s is a sporting goods store that has lots for everyone.  You will see taxidermied animals (I asked and none were killed just for the display), sporting good items of all shapes and sizes, Christmas displays and you may even see Santa Claus.  The only request they have is that you don’t take photos of the employees or prices of items.

Lunch will be at 12:30 at Lantzville Village Pub
