10.13.2022 Meeting Minutes and next meeting 11.10.2022

By -

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.

Our next meeting will be a holiday meeting, the second Thursday of the month Dec. 14.2023.  Bring a snack or sweet to share with the club, if you would like, as well as photos to share. Last Meeting we met at the Whitefish Community Library, and it was nice to be back to a simple life.  Although I was unprepared and did not bring a laptop, Dee saved the day.  She went home to get the laptop from her house.  Only a slight delay. Frank showed the club some great snow ghost shots, bison from the range and a shot of barrel racing Sidney showed us images from his photography workshop down south in Utah, I believe.  Close up desert shots, pictographs and a comparison between black and white and infared.  His teacher carries this frame around and uses it to look for shots that he likes.   I showed images from Egypt, before going I was unaware that it is an unsafe place, or that we would have a full time security guard with us traveling to the sites.  Our first guard was very nice and down pla

Below are some of the photos that we saw last month. Dee showed images from winter.  Glad she has been able to find it!  Ice skating on the North shore of Flathead and climbing up Big Mountain. It was nice to see Val at our December meeting.  She brought images from the park, of the sky and things around town that peaked her interests. Tony showed a nice collection of night shots, a wide variety of bird shots and wildlife shots. He went over to Lake Coeur d'Alene, where this year over 400 eagles have been spotted for the migration.  Check out this site that has been tracking the numbers.  I finished up with my photos from the Holy Land.  Next meeting I will bring the rest of the photos from our journey to Jordan.  This is the birthplace of Jesus.  A Greek Orthodox church has been built o
