Photo Walk

On August 14, the camera club held a photo walk, or what was intended to be a photo walk. The premise of a photo walk is to stroll along and shoot photos of whatever catches your eye, and the idea is not to stop for any longer than the time it takes to snap the picture. Photo walks are usually enjoyed by groups of people. This wasn’t the case for ours.

The weather was not the best for enjoying a nice walk, but fortunately for the four of us who did show up, the shooting conditions were quite good. It was an overcast day that provided for nice, even light, so harsh contrast wasn’t a concern. Of those in attendance, three were club members. You can see some of the images they captured in a special gallery by clicking on this link.

Great Folks, Great Syrup

Spring has finally sprung here in Grey County and along with it was the annual flow of maple syrup.

At a recent maple syrup event in Kemble two of our members, Lynn and Bert Reket, found friendship in a young lady from Toronto who is a blogger for Today’s Parent magazine. Amanda Factor posted a story about her visit and added some pictures by Lynn and Bert. You can read the post at the following link: Amanda Factor from Today’s Parent
