Message from our President

Hello Everyone,

Wow, we have a fun few months of the club this year, with some great speakers and a fabulous first digital photo contest. We certainly have some talented photographers among our club in all three categories, as you'll see by the winning images in the

newsletter and website.

The weather this year for Decem-ber certainly is allowing us to get out and enjoy the City and surrounding areas for some photo opportunities. Don't forget to keep shooting all the

seasons in the Beaches.

We are working on getting some great opportunities for some learning through workshops and critiques at the club for everyone. Look forward to

more info coming soon on this.

Remember we are always looking for some great articles or images from any of your travels or opportunities to showcase your work. Please submit

the info so we may include it in our next newsletters.

I’d like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and a Happy New Years too. Have a safe and

fun Holiday Season.

Don't forget the next meeting is the Social at the Beacher Café, see the de-

tails in the newsletter and don't forget to RSVP.

Hope to see everyone at the Social, if not see everyone in the New Year!

Unless otherwise specified in the Program, we meet at Beach United Church,

140 Wineva Ave., Toronto. Meetings start at 7:00 p.m. and run to 9:30 p.m.

Vid Ingelevics, photogra-pher, arts writer, Ryerson instructor and independent curator, will share aspects of his experience of shifting between still and moving images by showing clips from some of his artistic projects that

highlight both the development of the technology used and the content.

GTCCC Inter-Club Competition The time is approaching for the GTCCC (Greater Toronto Council of Camera Clubs) Inter-club competition. The competition is similar to the events we hold within the club but on a much big-

ger scale. There is both a Digital and Print component to the event.

In addition to individual winners, there is a club award for the best performance by its members.

Individuals can submit up to 10 entries with a max of 7 digitals and a max of 4 prints. There is no maximum for number of submissions in a category, so for example you can submit 7 digitals all in

the Architecture Category.

Entry fees are $2.00 per image/print to a maximum of $16.00, so if you chose to submit 10, the

last 2 submissions are free.

There are 10 tightly defined categories, with an 11th ("Human Portraits") embedded in the 10 - in other words, they will pick out the best human portrait from your submissions in the 10 catego-

ries. If you are specifically submitting a Human Portrait, simply submit it under "People".

We will be sending out the entry form to everyone shortly. In the meantime, please get started on finding those perfect images for submission. Read the category descriptions carefully, as images

that do not clearly reflect the category will be scored low.

We will require your entries before January 10 - more details on how to submit to follow.

The submission rules and category descriptions have been posted to our website—we will update

once we have sorted out the technical bits. Click here to view or download.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mark Kremblewski

<mark.kremblewski@gmail.com> directly.

Let’s be creative and share some fun photos that you have taken with your phone.

This can be a platform to share some ideas and tricks on how to create some inter-

esting photos with your phone.

The rules are pretty simple:

Each month post one photo taken with your phone and capturing your interpretation

of the theme.

First, download the Instagram app to your phone. Upload a photo to Instagram,

Tag the photo with the hashtag #bpcpix and share it.

T'is the Season - December Challenge

Use you phone to capture the holiday spirit. Lights, decorations, events etc. Share one photo on In-

stagram by adding #bpcpix to the comment section.

Don't forget to check #bpcpix throughout the month to see what members have posted and to show

your support by liking a photo or adding a comment.

Happy Holidays!

Thanks to Valerie Crease and the membership committee for this great idea!

Jewelz Journey, by Sarah Boutilier

A few months ago, I signed up with Model Mayhem to get myself mo-

tivated to photograph more people, experiment with light and basical-

ly let my imagination go wild. Not too long after signing up I had two people contact me asking to photograph them based on the photos I

posted to my profile. On Remembrance Day, I photographed Jewelz,

a vivacious, curvy young woman who’s goal it is to break into the plus

size modeling world. She is so passionate about this, she even has

“EFFYOURBEAUTYSTANDARDS” tattooed on her left calf.

Before the photo shoot, I researched how to photograph curvy wom-

en. I managed to find great images online for tear sheets that both of

us looked through for inspirations. In my research, I discovered a household icon, whom everyone

knows as Spock, photograph curvy, voluptuous women along with other fantastic bodies of work. ‘scuse the pun.

Leonard Nemoy is interviewed in this article showcasing his work from, “The Full Body Project”. It’s

so far, one of the best articles I’ve read about this project. Perhaps it’s because I can hear his voice

ring out that is truly his and not Spock’s. Thank God… I don’t… have… to hear… Kirk’s! For the first time in my mind, Leonard Nemoy is his own person. I sent another article about “The Full Body Pro-

ject to Jewelz. I wasn’t sure if she knew about it already. Turns out she didn’t and here’s what she

she wrote back, “OMGSH THAT LINK WAS DOPE. I have no idea Leonard N did photography and he is

fabulous at it. The black and white was dope and then i saw the full body and im like WOO.” I was very pleased to know she was as much excited about this discovery as I was. Indeed, I’d love to get

my hands on a Leonard Nemoy book of photography.

It was a simple set up; a canvas mottled brown background, 1 Alien Bee with a shoot through studio

umbrella. In the beginning, I didn’t move the light source from the left side I had it in. The light filled

the space completely lighting her softly, so for the most part we went through many poses, some working some not. Jewelz had so many great facial expressions that I asked her to look pouty, sur-

prised, or sheepish. Another great feature, her hair. I kept fluffing it forward and she kept smoothing

it back. From these batch of photos, I had an inkling they were like a painting I had once seen, or

several paintings from the same artist, but I couldn’t put my thumb on it until Rob mentioned it at Photographers Anonymous. “You know what these are like?” asking me to scroll back to a full length

of Jewelz pigeon toed and looking as though she was caught with her hands in he cookie jar. ” No

what?” “It looks like a Botero Sculpture.”

Jewelz Journey, by Sarah Boutilier, cont.

Not recognizing the name right away, I said, “it looks like that Mexican Folk Artist.” “Yeah, Botero!

And he’s Columbian, not Mexican.” It’s because of his suggestion that I’ve contacted Jewelz again to

see if she’d like to do another shoot in the Botero Style. She’s agreed and the shoot takes place on December 3rd, but more about that later.

Close to the end of the night, I decided to move the lighting from the front to the side. Tethering or

wifing it through the Canon 6D would have come in handy at this point. Now I had dramatic lighting,

but felt as though I’ve exhausted every pose. Or the poses that looked great before, didn’t work

now. This was what I needed. A chance to switch up the lighting and experiment, especially with a challenging unique body type. In the end I had some successful poses, but because there was little

time remaining, I wasn’t able to pull much more from myself or Jewelz. My favorites besides the Bo-

teroesque images were the portrait shots. Jewelz full moon face, rosebud mouth and runaway curly

hair reminded me of a cherub from a Leonardo Di Vinci painting. Lol. I’ve also thought of cherubs as yet another themed photo shoot for Jewelz.

Working With Freeman Patterson, by June Galbraith

In 2013, Barbara Merritt and I flew to New Brunswick to at-

tend a 7-day workshop given by Freeman Patterson and An-

dre Gallant. Needless to say it was a wonderful experience. Last summer, we decided to do a one day Master Class with

Freeman, renting the cottage behind his house at his 500-

acre property in Shamperʼs Bluff, New Brunswick. During the

day he worked us hard and in the evenings the three of us enjoyed one another’s company, sipping wine while shooting

the sunset from his deck. It was just amazing to learning

from his skill, gather his wisdom, laugh and share stories.

The experience will remain with us always.

Last month we received a call from Sandy McMurrich, who has been Freemanʼs agent and friend for the past 16 years.

Freeman was flying in for a couple of weeks, and would be

staying at his home in Oakville to exhibit and sell some of

his work. Sandy invited us to join Freeman and a few other friends for an intimate dinner at his home. We had the

pleasure of viewing the exhibit privately, and yes, we are

both now owners of an original Freeman Patterson! Sandy

will be visiting each of us as he insists on coming to each home to choose the best location to hang each piece. Heʼs

very protective of Freemanʼs work!

For both Barb and me this has been an experience of

growth, shared passion of photography, laughter and friend-ship. We encourage anyone who is considering a workshop,

retreat or class to jump in with two feet as these events

have really shaped our photography in ways we could not

have imagined.

Exhibitions CHARLES MATTON

A Photographic Survey

Exhibition Dates: November 28, 2015 – January 16, 2016

Opening Reception: Saturday, November 28, 2-

5pm

This exhibition will display a selection of work, in-cluding photographs from his very first

“Reconstitutions of Sites”, from the early stages of a

process started in 1986 which led to his famous

“Boxes”. The self-described “manufacturer of imag-es” created these interiors by designing, building,

sculpting, painting, and lighting miniaturized sets.

Matton then photographed these sets to produce

“almost realistic” images depicting a parallel universe of spaces and accessories created by the artist

through composition, material, and colour. He care-

fully crafted lighting, the final step in his process, to

break down the appearances into endless interpreta-tions in his obsessive search of reality.
