Glacier Camera Club

Our next meeting is Thursday, Feb. 12th, 2026 6pm at The Whitefish Library. Our last meeting was early January with lots of great conversation and attendance.  Tony and his wife traveled to Mexico.  He brought some great bird shots, ocean shots and overall scenes.  I brought some shots of Christmas trees, and images from the Fargo air museum.  We took a tour down memory lane for Jeff's dad as he showed us the planes that he used to fly for the guard.  During the cold war, he was part of the US's air patrol.  He flew everything from the F4 to the F89, which is shown below. It looks like there will be some eaglet's this year from Jackie & Shadow.  They already have 2 eggs on the nest.  Let the fun begin watching them try to hatch their eggs right from the live feed from their nest.   https://friendsofbigbearvalley.org/eagles/

 Happy New Year!!  Our next meeting is next Thursday 1.8.26 at the Whitefish Library 6 PM.   Check out Tony's articl e on his rare loon the Flathead Beacon.  I can't get enough of the white fluffball. Check out the article on our friend Sumio Harada in the Flathead Beacon. We had a nice meeting ion December Sidney Stone showed us some black and white shots from Paris.  I showed a could of glass plate negatives from Whitefish that proved to us that Teakettle was missing it's trees back then, as Tony pointed out.  Tony showed a wide variety of birds, lights and elk!

We had a nice meeting even though we were locked out of our room at the library.   We changed gears to the top floor of the brewery and just showed this images on a laptop.  Next time we should remember that we have to grab a key if the library is locked, or after hours.  Sean travelled from the boarder to come to club so we had to find another location!  It all worked out well. Next meeting is December 11, 2025 AT 6pm, at the Whitefish Library.  Bring snacks to share, I will grab a pizza and things that you want to get rid of for our holiday meeting. Some of the images are seen below that we showed. Frank Adele Nelson Leanne Sean  

Our next meeting will be a little later at 7PM, the library already has an event from 4-7pm.  November 13th 7 PM at the Whitefish Library.   Photographers must have been taking advantage of this enchantingly warm  colorful fall day because not very many of us made it to the meeting.  Sports photography and hikes and climbs in Glacier park dominated the  conversation. Dee provided evidence of showy blooms and abundant huckleberries in  October, and a sneak peek of the views from Grinnell Glacier Overlook,  where Leanne will be hiking soon.

 We had small numbers last month with amazing photos!  Next meeting is Oct. 9th, 2025 6PM at the Whitefish Library. I bought a new laptop, which worked fine for the slideshow.  I did however delete the images from last month so I do not have much for the meeting minutes.   Tony followed an Albino Loon around this summer, which are 1 and 30,000 chance of seeing.  He was able to watch from the time it was little to full grown and left the area.  I was not going to post one of those, since he is working on getting them published! Click HERE to see some video of one from Minnesota. Leanne went down south to Bryce & Zion and was able to hike into the Narrows. Dee also showed some of her adventures from hiking around the area. Frank brought some of is iconic snow ghost shots back when they were massive.  Some goats, neon lights and more. I showed some shots from flying over the Bob Marshall and South Fork trip that I was supposed to go.  I had...

 We had a nice meeting June 25.  It was great to see everyone, especially Gary.  We will take a summer break and pick up either September or October for our next meeting. Sidney Stone showed us a technic he has been playing around with adding a texture behind flower shots.  He is willing to show us the process next time we meet again! Tony Gangemi showed some of his great bird shots, northern lights and this close up of a dandelion in bloom. Adele showed images from Lake McDonald and an historic shot from the park by Ferde Greene. Dee showed some images from the East side of the park, St. Mary Lake and some close up flower shots.
