Cal Rice
Title: Shutter Up and Roam On
Developing a Travelogue that people want to see
This presentation will discuss travel presentations that vary from,
“here are my pictures of famous landmarks” to “this is my travel story”.
The primary focus will be the planning, photographing, development
and presentation of a story that people will enjoy hearing.
Cal received his first camera for Christmas 1951. In 1956 he documented an 8 week project in the Pacific Northwest. During his 32 year career at IBM a “side gig” was photographing events and new computers for product announcements. In recent years he has done travelogue photography in several countries including Italy, Bhutan and Cuba.

Margo Pinkerton
Title: Concept, Vision, Passion
This program will delve into the important elements of creating
a photograph rather than “takin’ pitchas”. Margo, aka
The Barefoot Contessa, believes photography is a fine-art form
and has always treated it that way, to wit the numbers of museums and collections that have her work, the awards she has garnered, and the dozens of exhibitions, both solo and group that she has had. She will be showing a number of her images, talking about what went into the making of them, and why this is important if you want to take your photography to the next level and make it more impactful.

Judy Hancock Holland
Title: Minimalist Photography
In any genre of photography, we aim to include in the frame only
those elements that contribute to the story or theme portrayed by
the image. Minimalist photography carries this to the extreme
, simplifying the frame dramatically and distilling the subject down
to its essence. Join us for this inspiring presentation by Judy Hancock
Holland, and learn to see and photograph your subjects
in ways you may never have considered.
Judy Hancock Holland’s photographic work has been exhibited in Canada, the US, and Europe.
She’s an award winning photographer and lifelong educator who loves to coach and mentor
others. While she is best known for her minimalist work, she enjoys a variety of other genres
including macro, abstracts and floral photography. Judy's website is JHHphoto.com and you can
also find her on Youtube.
