 We had a nice meeting in February, 2023 and were greeted with an incredible sunset on the way to the meeting.  I wanted to grab a shot of the sunset, but was running late and decided not to. Jeff did get a great shot of it. Our next meeting is 3.9.2023, the second Thursday of the month at Whitefish Library at 6 PM.  We had a few new members to our meeting Pete and Diane Sabin, who are the parents to a long time friend Reid Sabin and Carl Hansen, a friend of Gary and Erin's. Marguerite started off the images with her shots from this year's Ski Joring.  Always a fun event, but this year was in the extreme cold.   Pete Sabin showed us a collection of different birds, bears, bison and more.  He also had a few shots from Glacier of the ice and historic  buildings. Dee showed the club some nice flower shots as a reminder that we will see the sun again.  We just might have to wait until summer!   Melissa brought in some photos from Senior photo shoots, some scenery shots and wildlif

10.13.2022 Meeting Minutes and next meeting 11.10.2022

October has brought amazing weather, but not the best fall colors this year.  I'll take the extended summer.   10.13.2022 Meeting minutes and 11.10.2022 November meeting will be at the Whitefish Library 6 PM in the Northwest door.   Many of us have noticed that fall colors are muted this year because it has been so dry, so this month, wildlife was a recurring theme. Myrna caught some great sandhill crane action, a turkey with wings spread, pronghorn, and wild-looking mushrooms. Dee showed some very small wildlife and a favorite way to enjoy Glacier Park. Sidney also captured elegant sandhill crane interactions, and dappled lighting in gardens in Paris. Duane impressed us by bringing big vibrant frame-filling prints of bears, moose, and an elk with freshly-shed velvet on his first time at camera club.
