Ladysmith Camera Club - August Theme Shoot “Conflict”

I’m still catching up but not nearly as late this time! The theme for August 2009 was “Conflict”. I don’t know if it was a case of too many folks in a happy mood or the exceptionally wonderful weather we’ve been having on Vancouver Island last month, but our members had some trouble producing “Conflict” images. Even so, we did get some good ones. Click here to see the top 3 results.

NEWS FLASH!

The first meeting of our second club season will be September 22. To celebrate an awesome first year and to get the new one off to a brilliant start, our guest speaker is Mike Yip, the well-known Vancouver Island nature photographer and author. Mr. Yip will be giving a presentation on Vancouver Island birds, including equipment, techniques, great bird locations and of course, outstanding bird photos. This presentation is sure to be both informative and inspiring for shutterbugs of all levels and interests.

The club meets the 4th Tuesday of the month at “The Terrace Room” behind “The Printingdun Beanery Cafe” at 341 First Ave, Ladysmith, British Columbia. The public is welcome. There is a $5 drop-in fee for non-members. The LCC welcomes new members, novice to pro.

Our “Conlfict” theme attracted 9 submissions and we were rather conflicted in choosing the top 3. So we decided to include FOUR images, just to be contrarian.

3rd Place Selection

2nd Place Selection
