Events

Saturday May 23rd, 10am to Noon. Meet just outside the Meewasin Valley Authority Building (402 3 Ave S). London Drugs will be bringing lenses for attendees to try on their camera bodies (if we could find out what mounts people use and lenses they’d like to try, that will help me narrow down what to bring).

We will meet at the Patterson Arboretum (Preston Ave N & College Drive) on May 26th at 7pm to take photos of the ornamental trees and shrubs. Leader: Jolanta Kedra.

Wednesday May 27th with Daniel from Sigma Canada – 6pm to 8pm – meeting point will be outside the main entrance to the Nutrien Wonderhub, from there will we walk to the Wier/CP Rail bridge to photograph the pelicans with telephoto lenses that Daniel will bring (he’ll bring as much as he can, but can’t confirm availability for every lens mount system).

We will go on a photo walk taking photos of one of the disc golf leagues in the city. They have given us permission to come out and photograph one night. Meet at the large parking lot at Diefenbaker Park (map) on June 4th at 6:30pm. Leader Mercedes Rhode. They love action shots and would be interested in having members photograph other events too!

Leader: Jannik Plaetner. For this walk, I suggest you set your camera to shoot in black and white – something which most mirrorless cameras can do. Removing colour forces you to see differently. Line, shape, contrast, value, and balance become the subject. The architecture and surrounding space give us plenty to work with:...
