Ed Luinstra Presenting in April

Ed Luinstra will be presenting on Macro Photography on Friday, April 14th.

Ed is a recent transplant from Calgary and arrived here in Kanata a year and a half ago. This is his first year in the Kanata Seniors Centre Camera Club. He is having a great time meeting new people and photographically exploring his new surroundings.

Ed has been doing photography since his teen years. He is of a technical bent and spent many hours in the darkroom back in the film days. He enjoys shooting landscapes, people, abstracts and many other subjects. In the last few years, he has concentrated on nature subjects, especially birds and anything else he comes across in the wilds. Some years ago, Ed became interested in macro photography, something that appealed to his technical side. He spends many summer days prowling in weedy fields looking for bugs to photograph.

PHOTOGRAPHER REQUEST


Janet Baigent was contacted by a gentleman named HERB BRENNEN who is a local representative of the following group:

Inductees – 80+ Hockey Hall of Fame

a not-for-profit organization that nationally recognizes active recreational hockey players 80 years of age and over.
They are looking for a photographer for May 6, 2023, to cover the 80+ Year Old Hockey Hall of Fame Inductees for 2023.
The organizer, HERB BRENNENm provided the following information:

There will be 28 inductees this year. They will play a game on the afternoon of May 6th at approximately 3.30 p.m. at the SENSPLEX on Maple Grove in Kanata. They will be divided into two teams and they are looking for a photographer for group photos prior to the game, as well as photos of the ceremonial “Face Off” for which they are hoping to have a local VIP do the puck drop.
Then they will play a game (photographer not required here) and then clean up, and go to dinner upstairs at the Sensplex.
After dinner, (estimated to be around 7 p.m.) there will be the formal Induction Ceremony which they would also like photographed. This will be done individually for each of the 28 inductees.
The balance of the evening will be for family & friends to photograph.
