Monthly Meeting – January 2024 – Lost in Newfoundland

2024-01-11 19:00 - 21:00

ZOOM Presentation

Topic: “Lost in Newfoundlandl” by Mike Winsor

Talk description:

Become “Lost in Newfoundland” with award winning professional photographer Michael Winsor.

Not literally lost in the sense of being able to find your way, but lost in the grandeur of a sweeping seascape or the rugged magnificence of a landscape. Become lost in the hypnotic stare of a red fox or the sheer power of a humpback whale breaching in the North Atlantic. During our time together Michael will showcase the beauty of Newfoundland and Labrador. Michael will present his favorite things to shoot such as; landscapes, icebergs, whales, and its large selection of wildlife. Michael has lots of culture-rich experiences and stories to share while reviewing his images.

Be sure to join us for a fun evening exploring the east coast.

    Topic: "Seeing Art in Architecture" by Lauri Novak

    Talk description:

    In the presentation “Seeing Art in Architecture,” Lauri will help you see the art in buildings and structures.

    You’ll learn to use composition, shapes and other elements to improve your architectural photos.

    Bio:

    Lauri Novak is an award-winning fine art photographer, photo tour guide, mentor and author. She has an eye for photographing unseen and unnoticed compositions and subjects.

    Lauri is often asked, “How did you see that?” She works hard to show different perspectives, unique angles and the everyday details of various subjects.

    Lauri’s photography reflects her perspective and personality. “I have always had a bit of a different way of looking at life. I’m not one to go along with the crowd or follow trends. My viewpoint and way of being have pushed through in my work.”
