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.

SUMMARY:Guest Speaker: Peter Hill – Scapes
DESCRIPTION:Direct from Katoomba\, Australia\, via Zoom\, our guest speaker will be Peter Hill\, an award winning black and white photographer. Although many of his awards are in landscape and nature\, he shoots in a wide range of genres including abstracts\, street\, architecture\, portraits\, etc.  Due to the very positive feedback we received from members on Peter’s previous talks\, we have invited him back to talk about ‘scapes’. \nThis presentation will be focused on photographic issues associated with: landscapes\, cityscapes\, seascapes\, waterscapes\, and cloudscapes. \nWe will look at each type of scape in turn\, with plenty of photographic examples\, but without trying to define their scope\, as some scapes can blend into each other.  We will instead ask and hopefully answer questions such as: what challenges does each scape represent to the photographer? What makes a ‘good’ scape photograph? People in scapes – good or bad? Do particular scapes require particular camera and other gear? As we take this geographically inclined journey we won’t dwell on the question of colour versus black & white for scapes\, but we may touch on it. \nWe will\, however\, definitely deal with the following specific topics\, and more: \n\nA short\, illustrated\, history of landscape photography\nPeople in landscapes and the sometimes thin line between scale\, story\, and self-centred narcissism\nHow to photograph a waterfall\nThe art of getting in close and cropping the frame\nTips\, tricks\, and traps for the photographer in each scape\nGetting on top of things in cityscapes\nThe difference between a cityscape and a street shot\nBreaking the rules of composition for a seascape\n\nGuests are welcome for this talk\, please complete the Guest Registration Form .  We will be in contact.  The guest fee is $10. \nPeter’s Flickr site: https://www.flickr.com/photos/51321042@N02/
