We will be holding the small flash (speedlight) workshop on Wednesday, December 4, 2024 from 10:00 AM until noon at the Kanata Seniors’ Centre.

Several people have expressed an interest in signing up and it appears likely that the demand for this workshop will exceed the number of spots available.  Discussions at the KSCCC Executive Meeting in October recommended that a draw be held to allocate the available spots fairly.  This is what we will do.

There will be slips of paper for you to write your name and email address on the tables at the side of the meeting hall, during the break at the November meeting.  We will draw eight (8) names just before the end of the meeting and will announce the members who have been selected to attend the December 4 workshop.

Given the high level of interest in this material, we are planning to hold another small flash workshop in the first quarter of 2025, so if your name is not drawn, you will have another chance to attend this workshop.

Please note: The material covered during the workshop is aimed at novice to intermediate-level photographers.  To attend you must have your own small flash; either the same brand as your camera or one by a third-party manufacturer that is made specifically for your brand of camera.

The flash must attach to your camera’s hot shoe and have a head that rotates and can be tilted up at least 45 degrees  If you do not have this type of equipment or do not know how to use it with your camera, this workshop is NOT aimed at you.

Your instructors will be Ross Laing and Manfred Mueller.  Ross holds a diploma in photography from Algonquin College and Manfred holds a diploma in photography from SPAO (School of the Photographic Arts – Ottawa).  Both are very experienced flash photographers.
