“Tips on Trips” by Georgette and Manfred Mueller, Friday January 9th 2026

Whether we travel specifically to take photos or just take snapshots here and there on our vacations, as photographers we are all aware that a camera is an indispensable part of any trip. The images we capture help keep the memories of our voyages – both good and maybe not so good – alive for years after the credit card bill has been paid off.
Club members Georgette and Manfred Mueller have travelled across the globe with their cameras for the past four decades and counting. They will share many of their experiences through this presentation, helping to explain through their images the photographic genre called Travel Photography.
Along with tips on timing, photographic gear to take, travel safety, lighting and post-processing, they will share anecdotes from their travels abroad and at home, They hope you will find these educational, informative and useful when taking photographs on your own future journeys.

Room Change – June 6, 2025 KSCCC Meeting
Mlacak Centre Closure – June 2 – August 31, 2025
The Mlacak Centre is having its roof replaced. This construction work will affect all parts of the building other than the Seniors’ Centre and the Beaverbrook Library. There will be no public access to the parts of the building where the work is being done.
This means that the KSCCC Monthly Meeting cannot be held in the usual rooms, Halls C & D.
Instead, we will be meeting in the Owen Prince room, which is down the hall to the left of the main doors of the Seniors’ Centre.
This room is smaller than our usual meeting room, with a maximum capacity of 48 people. Because of the room capacity limits, we would ask that you do not bring any guests to the June 2025 KSCCC meeting.
We will be returning to our usual meeting rooms starting in September 2025, once construction work has been completed.
