What we have going on…
Our speaker for April is Lorna Zaback. Lorna picked up her first SLR camera as a teenager and immediately fell in love with taking pictures. For Lorna, photography is not only about attempting to create beautiful and inspiring images, it is also a journey of discovery, of striving to find her artistic voice.
While she will always appreciate and endeavour to capture the beauty of the world around her with her camera, her goal is to also use some of her photographic images as the foundation for creating works of art that are rich in colour, texture, and movement.

Our speaker for June is member Wayne Buhr. Wayne is an award winning photographer who has traveled the world capturing amazong images.
As he says, “Photography is my passion and language of choice. It allows me to communicate a personal perspective of my life experiences. I have tried to capture the common denominators of humanity and the similarities in the lives of ordinary people. Street photography gives me that opportunity.”

As he says, “Macro photography gives me the ability to photograph at home or away in virtually any light and weather condition. That is one of the reasons it has become my favourite pastime.”

Our speaker for August is former club member and President Randy Hall. Randy will be talking to us about getting more out of your camera.
Randy is a Vancouver Island photographer, specializing in landscape and nature photography. A past member of the club, he started into a business venture about 5 years ago, taking part in local markets, craft and artisan shows and in 2016, joined TOSH as a resident artist.
Randy’s photography is described as “his interpretation of works of a true master… Mother Nature”. He firmly believes there are several tools involved in digital photography. Postprocessing software is one of those tools. Depending on the raw image and the desired output, its use could be a minor or major component. The camera is considered more important, in that it’s needed to capture the high quality raw material (image) you start with. Most important however, is the person behind the camera and in front of the computer, for imagination and skill.
We will be showing our Favourites from June, our field trip outing and the Lazy Hazy Days assignment.
