Composition Tips
We are lucky to have photography as our hobby. During this difficult time we still can use our cameras to express ourselves by capturing images we see in our minds. Composition plays a big role in making our photos most appealing. This video gives a great summary of some major composition forms. May you enjoy it as I do. Be safe.

While Walking Though Beaverbrook
On our daily walks in our neighbourhood , we find stones some residents painted and distributed along paths…
… to thank health care workers …
… to cheer you up …
… to make sure you do not feel alone …
… to make you feel strong …
… to make you happy.

Enjoy a Socially Distant Forest Walk
Last week I saw a fellow near my entrance way, photographing from the verge of the road. I invited him into my property and he spent a hour wandering about on his own. It got me thinking I could offer an open invitation to all camera club members who would like a walk in the woods. I live 6 km beyond the village of Carp. I will re-mark some of the trails in the next day or so, but if you are uneasy about going into the woods there are open spaces to photograph. At the moment there are few biting insects, but there are tics, so dress appropriately. Phone (613 839 2747) or email (careysj@hotmail.com) if you would like to come and I will send you directions. I am home.

With regards to the forest walk invitation, I do not want to dash hopes about a walk in the woods, but exploring the trails myself this afternoon, I discovered it is not a stroll or a walk, but rather a scramble. The once trail is now blocked by fallen large trees and it may be a challenge, in some areas, to locate the old trail. It would be an outing for the most venturesome or intrepid adventurer.

The most beautiful spring garden in the world!
For the first time since opening in 1950, the famous Keukenhof flower garden, whose 7 million bulbs attract about 1.5 million visitors from all over world each year, is closed due to the Covid19 pandemic. Fortunately Albert Dros, a Dutch photographer was able to gain access to the garden and spent a day capturing these images of the beautiful flower fields, without people.

2020 Winter Photo Challenge Results
Members of the KSCCC had another successful year with the 2020 Winter Photo Challenge. This year we challenged ourselves to create a photographic project using only 4-6 photographs focused on a specific topic. A total of 17 photographers submitted approximately 100 photographs on topics ranging from people riding the bus, to winter wildlife, desert flowers and Ottawa’s street art. Congratulations to all photographers!
The Slideshow of the photographic projects can be viewed here.
The galleries of all photographs are here.
