North Shore Photographic Challenge on March 5th

As COVID is still with us the competition will be an ON-LINE event on Saturday March 5th – mark your calendars!
By being on-line again it will allow Challenge participants from across BC & the Yukon, as well as their fellow club members, family & friends to see the show, interact with sponsors showing their latest gear in break out rooms, sign up for CAPA courses, win door prizes & vote in the People’s Choice competition (digital images instead of prints).

Due to the success of last year’s Keynote Speaker, this year there will be 2 award winning photographers, Connor Stefanison & Jess Findlay, starting at 4:00pm.
They will share their stories of nature photography from the field & key lessons learned.

Tickets to the show, including the Keynote Speech, cost $15 and are available on-line now.
