The Harbour City Photography Club is hosting Photo Salon again this year. Your image(s) need to be submitted by February 15th/2020.
Photo Salon is part of a worldwide system of recognized forums to showcase the commitment, achievement and outstanding work of photographers in the region. It is open to club and non-club members on Vancouver Island. A panel of judges adjudicates the digital entries and, if accepted, the photographs are printed, hung and evaluated for 1st -, 2nd -, and 3rd -place recognition. There is also a ‘People’s Choice’ award. Photo Salon is hosted by the Harbour City Photography Club in Nanaimo and is endorsed by the Canadian Association for Photographic Art (CAPA), the prime photography group in Canada.
Full details for image sizes and print sizes, dates and timeline are detailed in INVITATION-INFORMATION 2020.
Our speaker this month is Nanaimo photographer, Brad Powell who is long time member of this society.
He is going to share with us – Exploring The Pep Ventosa Technique.
It is a unique and exciting technique and I am sure all of us will want to try it when we go home.

With the herring in the marina will be a bustle of action giving lots of opportunity for fantastic photos. There are so many seagulls and other birds along the beach in Qualicum, it should make for some incredible photography opportunities.
Lunch will be at the French Creek Pub at noon.
Following the field trip don’t forget to enter 3 of your photos on the field trip page on the website.

Assignment number 2 – April 16-April 30 2020
Our second topic is How Close Can You Go????
Dust off your macro lens and have fun in and out of the house. You don’t have a macro lens – no problem just go as close as your camera will allow you to get. The ideas here a endless and it doesn’t just have to be flowers.
You can enter a photo for each of the categories – one black and white, one color and one digitally enhanced.
Like field trips we will be doing assignments twice a month instead of one and there will be no voting at this time. Please enter your photos on the website following the sizing and category specifications. If you entered in the assignment #1 please send them to president.opc@gmail.com and I will make sure they are included in the slide show. Let’s have some fun with this since we are asked to stay at home or keep social distancing.
