Our September meeting is a social event where we can spend some time with other members. If there are any questions about our BIG slideshow evening in October, this is one time to get some information.
Once the business of the meeting is over, we will have the results of the Reflection assignment, the field trip to Mt. Washington and the favourite shots from August.

Slideshow Night – Our October meeting is going to be quite exciting with slideshows from many of our members. Summer is over and our members have traveled and will be sharing their memories. The list is not yet complete, however, we are expecting shows from Ken Meisner, Shelley Harynuk, Alan Smith, Wayne Buhr, Roy Watts, Inge McDonald, Ed Dunnett, Jack Harynuk and there’s more to come.
Before the show gets going, we’ll get the club business out of the way, then see the results of the Moving Water assignment, the field trip to Morningstar Farm and our favourite shots from September.
There will be coffee and tea at $1 but bring your own popcorn!

NOTE: This field trip now has the Old Country Market’s management approval to photograph inside the market in addition to the open areas. The question was raised during the general meeting 5 October.

To extend our educational program which John Critchley worked very hard to produce and deliver, apply some of those compositional techniques to the images created during the field trip. This is not a contest but an opportunity to explore and expand our photographic skills. These included but not limited to:
Demonstrate these techniques by applying a different and single technique to each of the 6 images you submit from your field trip photos. Send a maximum of 6 photos to fieldtrip.opc@gmail.com. Keep in mind the club’s size limitation for each image.
Have fun and see you Sunday 16 October.
