Studio Lighting Equipment on Offer

A longtime Club member is generously donating his collection of studio lighting equipment to our Club as a fundraiser. What’s included:

  • 2 light stands
  • 2 photo flood reflectors
  • 4 incandescent bulbs
  • 1 large tripod with extension boom & balance weight
  • 1 soft box with diffusion filter
  • 2 umbrella reflectors
  • all relevant hardware
  • 1 Nikon SB 600 Speedlite

Please note, this needs to go as a collection, not as individual items, and will need to be picked up from the donor’s home on Gabriola Island. From a quick search through eBay, we estimated the value of the collection at about $500+. Photos of a few of the items on offer appear below.

If you would like to offer a suitable donation to Gabriola Photography Club for this collection please let us know as soon as possible.

Spring is in the Air – February Field Trip

Barring another snow event or atmospheric river, Gabriola Photography Club’s first field trip opportunity of 2024 will be on Monday, February 12, when we’ll head to Sandwell Provincial Park on Gabriola Island.

We will meet at 1:00 pm, in the parking lot at the end of The Strand, and walk the trail to the salt marsh and beach, looking out for signs of spring life and bird activity. 

The final hill to the beach and marsh is steep, so appropriate footwear is recommended.  For those who wish to warm up after our excursion, we can gather for a post-field trip beverage and snack at the Surf Lodge. 

Club members and other friends are welcome to participate. Please email ahead of time (“attn Sally”) if you are planning to join in, so that we can keep you apprised of any last-minute changes.
