Polar bears invade Churchill, Manitoba! Log into Evergreen Camera Club on March 9th to find out why.
Each fall, polar bears gather on the edge of Hudson Bay in Churchill, Manitoba to wait for the ice to arrive. Frozen waters mean it is time to hunt seals but before then, the polar bears just pass the time waiting for the bay to freeze by playing, feeding, roaming and sleeping near the town of Churchill. Join Dawn for this visual presentation about what to expect during a trip to Churchill, including wildlife of the area, travel tips and how to stay warm. Discover more at www.dawnwilsonphotography.com.
Evergreen Camera Club is continuing with the Zoom meeting format, so join ECC on Wednesday, March 9th for social time at 6:30 pm and announcements at 7:00 pm in the Zoom meeting room. New members, students and guests are welcome.

The Power and the Beauty of Infrared
Re-visualizing your world
Add infrared photography to your portfolio! Infrared is quickly gaining in popularity and Tony Sweet is a master. Join Evergreen Camera Club for this illuminating topic on February 9th. “The inherent surreal properties of B&W infrared are always surprising and redefines the visual world,” Sweet explains. “We will also touch on the world of Faux Color Infrared.”
Through ample illustrations, Tony will breach the curtain between the world we see and the one we imagine in B&W and in Color Infrared photography. His image examples will illustrate the effects of angle and quality of light, times of day and weather conditions.
Tony expects the presentation to run 70 to 90 minutes. Questions are encouraged throughout the presentation and at the end. Visit Tony’s website, tonysweet.com, for more amazing photos.

Noted photographer Dorothea Lange had a quote that goes “A camera teaches you how to see without a camera.” When you think about it this is so true. As photographers, we see the world a little differently than other people. This visualization is a conscious process we use to create visually impactful images, whether its landscapes, nature or wildlife.
Andy Long will walk you through the process of several aspects of previsualizing: how an image will appear after the thought process is completed with the click of the shutter button.
Andy is a Lakewood-based photographer and has run First Light Photo Workshops for 26 years. He’s spoken to the Evergreen Camera Club numerous times over the years. Learn more at www.firstlighttours.com
