CAPS Photo club December 2022 News

It has been a busy fall here in Central Alberta. Our club has restarted in person club meetings and at a new venue.

We are now meeting at the Canada Winter Games Centre at the Red Deer Polytechnic which is a huge upgrade for us.


We have had some great presenters in the first half of the CAPS season including CAPA’s Dan Sigouin, JP Stones from Mexico & Tony Wong with a workshop on light painting that was a ton of fun.


December marks our annual Winter Competition with an awards night slated for December 14th, where we select winners in 8 categories. Good luck to all our entrants, I have seen a sneak peak & there are some fantastic images!


Also in December, the club has some holiday themed events in store. Ten Central Alberta towns will be welcoming the CP Holiday train & CAPS will be there, there will also be a holiday lights event also somewhere in Central Alberta.

CAPS is also involved as a volunteer group for a local “Battle of the Bands” event on December 3 & the final being on New Years Eve.


Our second half of the season kicks off in January with a stellar line up of presenters including Nikon & McBain Camera.


Happy Holidays to all CAPA members from Central Alberta & the CAPS Photo Club

Burnaby Photographic Society’s Print Exhibition

The Burnaby Photographic Society’s 25th Annual Print Exhibition
at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, Burnaby, B.C.

What’s the recipe for a great photograph?

Mix together a bundle of observations, a burst of insight, a pinch of preparation and equal parts right place and right time. Simmer, edit to taste and share generously.

The Burnaby Photographic Society invites you to savour a fresh selection of printed works from December 4, 2022 through January 28, 2023 in Shadbolt’s Centre Aisle Gallery and Encores Cafe. From landscape to wildlife to abstract, there’s something for every taste. Inspiring. Engaging. Energizing. Add art to your day and you’ll be hungry for more.

Since 1970 the Burnaby Photographic Society has been an active community of photo hobbyists, enthusiasts and pros. We meet regularly to learn from each other and to shape the future of photography in the region.
