Today Greg and Lynn appeared on Grey County Life with Diane Foulds on Rogers Local TV. They were on to talk about the club and outline what we do. We hope to have a video of the interview to show at next week’s meeting. There are a few photos from the studio posted on our Facebook page. You can see them at http://on.fb.me/zI8dJP.

December Theme: Sentient Beings
The word “sentient” means having the capacity for feeling. The word “beings” pertains to people and animals. The theme for us this month means trying to capture people or animals in a moment of “feeling” or in a mood. It allows you to use the Mik’sang approach to capturing live beings in a way that shows emotion, a mood or a personality trait. It also means capturing that moment without the subject being aware of the camera pointed in their direction. Nor is the subject posed for the picture. You may have to think about camera settings for indoors to avoid using a flash. Capture the mood with photographing only body parts like hands or feet. Be prepared with your camera handy for that “unexpected” moment. Be patient and wait for that “moment” to happen.
The holiday season is a good time for photographing “Sentient Beings” at family gatherings or public events like parades. Go through your files to find past pictures that may fit in this category. Have fun over the holiday season!
