May meeting minutes

[anna mccolm]

There were 20 participants for may's zoom Club meeting.

The deadline for submitting photos to this year's Eclectic Visions virtual show has come and gone! It was May 15th but I'm sure there's still time to beg an entry if the dates slipped your mind.

On May 25th the Victoria Camera Club has organized a talk on macro photography with Don Komarechka. Kahsia highly recommends him and, since Macro is our next month's challenge, it is a pertinent subject to look in to. You have to register and there is a fee attached (probably $5) and it will be from 7pm - 9pm. Once registered you will get a zoom link invitation after noon on the 25th.

For our June meeting Kahsia has invited Cole Thompson to speak to us. He will speak about black and white fine art photography. Pierre suggested extending an invite to members of Photosynthesis for a $5 fee.

Avril Kirby is showing photos (with an umbrella theme) in the Country Grocer cafe for the month of May.

Pierre is having a black and white retrospective show in the library room in June.

Timmy Gibbon and Simon Henson presented excellent talks on B&W photography, illustrating their points with interesting photos.

Doug presented the club's 40 slides on B&W photography.

Next month's challenge is Macro.
