Photographing glass can be an exciting, and sometimes frustrating, exercise. When light strikes a glass object three different things can happen: 1-light can be transmitted; 2-it can be reflected; and 3-it can bend (refraction). These three unique properties of light need to be considered when attempting to photograph a glass object.
There are two main techniques for photographing glass. The overall goal of either technique is to define the contours at the edges of a glass object. Each technique is defined by the way light is seen at the edge of the glass, either as black lines or as white lines. Continue reading “Photographing Glass”

A new day is dawning. The Portrait Workshop will be held Thursday, 31, May, at the Kanata Senior’s Centre, starting at 9:30 or before, if you are able to help with setup. We will be there from 9:00 – 2:30.
It is open to all camera club members either to help, to photograph or to take portraits. Timing is at your convenience; registration is not necessary; bring your camera; practice, learn, have fun, meet new friends
There will be five different portrait areas set up with different equipment. Come and experiment and see what works best for you.
Hope to see you there.

Thanks to Ed Lascelle for organizing, to Anne Jones for helping with the setup and the props (lovely glass pedestals), for Sue Carey for loaning the great old cameras, and to all who contributed images. Unfortunately there wasn’t enough space to use them all.
The display will be there until Monday June 11th.
The club has been invited to provide a display for the fall (early Oct for 2 weeks).
The library is very pleased with the display . This is great exposure for the club..
