March Meeting
Parkland Photo Club met in the Doghide Gallery on Tues
evening, April 22 with 10 members present. Anne McIntosh chaired the
meeting. Members were reminded to bring their Spring project to the May
meeting. This is to be 4 photos taken this spring that are mounted as one
unit. will be judged at the May meeting.
Time was spent discussing theme shoot topics for next year as well as
suggestions for our club outing in May or June. Final decisions on these
will be made at the May meeting.
April theme shoot was an open one that could include any photo taken after
our May 2007 meeting when we selected the theme shoots for this year. There
were 8 entries. First went to Mary Wright for her photo "Barrier River
Bridge" and there was a tie for second between Alan Caithcart's "Jack
Rabbit" and Glen Neish's "Nature's Art".
he Anderson girls were not present at this meeting so we couldn't view
their winning videos. Hopefully they will bring them to the May meeting.
Glen and Alie Neish then presented a showcase of their photos including some
great close ups of various birds ranging from huge cranes to tiny
hummingbirds, as well as beluga whales in Churchill, and some photos of the
Badlands of Wyoming. Thanks for sharing these with us.
Glen and Alie Neish also supplied the lunch for this meeting and another
thanks for that!
Members were reminded to send or take their photos from which they would like
enlargements made to Alan Caithcart as soon as possible. Digital images can
be sent to the Anderson girls to be reproduced on cards or they can be given
to the girls in the form of a print. These cards will then be for sale in the
Doghide Gallery. There are some cards there now so drop in and have a look at
them.
The next meeting will be on May 27. The theme shoot for that one will be "Duck(s)".
Election of officers for next year will take place at this meeting.
