Member Sharing - Images of Summer (12:00 AM PDT)
Status: Judged
Competition Type: Internal - Non-Competetive
|
Club Meeting - Welcome Back - Images of Summer (7:00 PM PDT)
Welcome Back!! After some announcements and a brief overview of the exciting program year ahead, we will launch the season with Member Sharing.
In the grand tradition of photography clubs everywhere and the New Westminster Photography Club specifically, we are asking members to share 1-5 images that they have taken over the summer. In the spirit of the “Intentionality” theme for the year, we are hoping you will come prepared to say a few words about your images, and share what you were thinking about and/or hoping to achieve when you were making each image.
You will need to submit your images to Member Sharing – Images of Summer, on the website by September 2 by 11:30 PM.
Note: We are continuing to use the work-around we created last year for collecting images to project at our meetings. Instead of uploading the images to a gallery, we will be uploading the images to a “faux competition” that you will find under the 02 – MEMBER SHARING AND WORKSHOPS group that you will find under the THEMES AND COMPETITIONS tab on the home page.
Despite the label, this is not a competition. There will be no judging or voting. In order to collect the images for sharing at our meetings, and to get them into the hands of our Projectionist, we need to be able to Export them from the website. Currently, this is our best mechanism.

The Heart of the Photograph - David DuChemin (7:00 PM PDT)
A Zoom Presentation of a Video by BC photographer David duChemin
A compelling photograph is more than visual. It's visceral. We don't only see it, we feel it. It's more than just focusing our lenses; it's also focusing the attention of those who will experience our photographs.
David’s 70-minute high-energy presentation includes a 15-minute recorded Q+A. He \walks through techniques and ways of thinking about the creation of images designed to engage human imagination and emotion, and creating images that are more than just visual but visceral. He discusses vision and intent, the use of space and time, the creation of depth, creative point of view, and other tools and ideas for making photographs that are more than just “of" something but about something more, something we can feel and experience more deeply.
We will break the presentation for discussion at key points.
