Hybrid - Arni Stinnissen -Bird and Wildlife Photography (7:00 PM EDT)
Arni will be presenting in-person and over zoom for the London Camera Club at the meeting hall of Village Green Community Church, 505 Village Green Avenue, London, ON, N6J 4G4 (Wonderland Road 1 block south of Commissioners Rd.)
Topic
Arni will take us on his journey of almost 2 decades as a fledgling (pun intended) bird photographer to be an accomplished professional.
Perhaps bordering on what some would say is obsession, Arni has kept the photography gear economy going!
Bio
From a very young age, Arni has had great admiration and respect for the great outdoors. As an award winning wildlife photographer, naturalist and conservationist, he is proud to have had his images published in conservation-themed, international journals including the prestigious Birdlife Australia, Wild Seed Project in Maine, National Audubon Society and Canadian Geographic. Arni and his spouse Dianne moved to the Bruce Peninsula permanently in 2018. Arni has been a photographer since the late ’80’s and when he retired a few years ago, he has taken advantage of the “new” emerging technology known as digital photography. Over the past 17 years, he has strived to improve his photographic skills in the field and in the digital darkroom.

Richard Martin - Learning To See: Exploring Abstract Composition (7:00 PM EDT)
Learning To See: Exploring Abstract Composition
Richard will be presenting over zoom
Topic
- A presentation for photographers who are technically experienced, visually aware and who are looking for a different direction in their photography. This session provides an opportunity to discover alternative ways to work creatively. Whether you are interested in landscapes, portraits, architecture and so forth, there are almost endless possibilities for expressing your feelings and vision photographically. The challenge is to communicate these feelings, without letting technique overwhelm vision.
- Uncovering concepts means peering into our imagination. We must be free and relaxed to learn how to play, to take risks, to trust our instincts and impulses, our dreams and spontaneous associations. We must learn to welcome and recognize the ambiguous, the accidental and the illogical, to allow reality to become surreal, metaphorical and imaginary.
- The session is concerned primarily with an exchange of ideas, experiments and investigations in montage, motion and multiple exposure, resulting in new directions and concepts for the viewer. It aims to challenge the celebrated and introduce new possibilities. It will provide both aesthetic exploration of individual creativity and technical experimentation with a renewed method of working.
I will examine a body of work characterized by the way design, form, and structure take precedence over the subject itself. This emphasis on deliberate structure and design can apply to a wide range of different images – from natural straight photography to manipulated abstractions.
