SUMMARY:Guest Speaker:  Luba Citrin (ZOOM ONLY)
DESCRIPTION:Our Guest speaker is photographer Luba Citrin. \n   \nHer presentation via Zoom is entitled “Still\, … but not so Still Life”.

She took early retirement in 2010\, and bought her first digital camera to take on her canoe\, camping and travel journeys.  Since then\, photography has become a passion\, an obsession\, and a means to express herself through images.  \nShe enjoys all aspects of photography – nature\, landscape\, still life and fine art\, and has fun creating altered-reality images that have won many awards. \nShe is a member of Richmond Hill Camera Club and Toronto Digital Camera Club\, as well as an accredited judge with the  Ontario Council of Camera Clubs. \nIn her presentation she will show her workflow starting with idea\, set up and execution. She will take you behind the scenes and show how much fun it could be in producing still life images that are different with the hope to motivate you not only creating still life images\, but in any genre of photography you do. \nTo see some of her work go to Luba Citrin Photography

SUMMARY:Theme:  Colour
DESCRIPTION:Colour is everywhere. See what vibrant and impactful images you can create making the best use of colour. Feel free to accentuate and even play with changed color during editing. \nAs a prelude to CAPA’s Colour Inspiration Competition you might want to start thinking of colour images that fit into one of the following themes: \n\nStill Life – images are skillfully-crafted arrangement(s) of vibrant objects and textures. Experimenting with lighting\, angles\, background and props may contribute to a unique fine art interpretation. The possibilities are endless – the beauty of flowers\, the allure of food\, nostalgia of toys\, the wisdom within books\, elegance of fabric\, the charm of collectibles\, craftsman’s hand tools\, and natural materials.\n\n\nDramatic Contrast & Shadows – images in this theme leverages the power of dramatic contrast and shadows. Sources of inspiration – low-key\, silhouette\, and selective lighting effects to create bold graphic image. Everyday spaces reveal geometric shadows cast by individuals\, buildings\, signs and structures.\n\n\nAction & Motion – image in this theme should convey excitement\, speed\, and movement through colour. Image can be a result of panning effects\, slow shutter speeds and freezing fast action. Source of inspiration is boundless – whether it’s animals\, birds\, dance\, long-exposure shots\, sports\, traffic\, vehicles\, or any other dynamic subject.\n\n\nNature’s Beauty – images capturing inspiring landscapes\, mesmerizing plants\, enchanting animals\, and captivating natural phenomena. Domesticated animals\, birds and drone images are welcome additions to this theme\, allowing for a broad spectrum of natural wonders. All hand-of-man elements are permissible in this theme.\n\n\nTravel – image that transcends the typical postcard and provides a fresh and creative perspective. Submissions are welcome from all corners of Canada or anywhere else in the world.\n\n  \nOur private Mighty Networks site is a great place to share your creations\, or bring your images on an image share night. If you are a HG member and not on Mighty Networks then contact us for someone to “invite you”.  Best way to contact is with an email to submissions@highlandglen.ca. \n  \nHappy Shooting

SUMMARY:Guest Speaker:  Randall Romano
DESCRIPTION:Our first Guest Speaker of the season is Randall Romano.  \n \nJoin us to learn about Documentary Street Photography.  Randall will share his experience and images to help you become a better and more confident street photographer sharing techniques to help you succeed on the street. \nFoot Traffic is a photographic series about legs and feet in motion and at rest on the streets of Toronto. \n  \nToronto is the largest financial center in Canada and the second largest in North America\, after New York City. At the peak of commuting it was estimated 250\,000 people came into and out of the financial district on a daily basis. By using documentary\, still photography\, my goal with this project was to experience as many aspects of the commuter life as possible and understand how it felt\, to work and temporarily exist in the realm of tall office buildings.In a Canadian context the existence of a concentrated financial district and the related influx of daily workers is unique. In particular the temporary nature of humanity inhabiting the workday office buildings\, surrounding streets and courtyards. By documenting the nature of this unique phenomenon\, my hope was to preserve a pictorial history\, reflecting the current times.
