October 30 to December 17, 2026

As an ongoing project, Gabriola Photography Club curates the art display space downstairs at the Gabriola Medical Clinic on Church Street, Gabriola Island. Club members take turns having solo exhibitions or taking part in group exhibitions.

Imagine a place so remote you can’t get there via road, only by boat or helicopter in the summer or sled dogs in the winter.

A new exhibition by Corinne Flaws features photos from her recent adventure in the wilderness of the west fjords of Iceland and South Eastern Greenland, among glaciers and icebergs and rocky shores and rough seas.

Corinne is an avid adventure photographer who loves to explore unique locations around the world, as well as around our own Island. No matter the location, she captures the beauty in order to share it with us via her photography and her other art. You can check out more of her work on her website.

As an ongoing project, Gabriola Photography Club curates the art display space downstairs at the Gabriola Medical Clinic on Church Street, Gabriola Island. Club members take turns having solo exhibitions or taking part in group exhibitions.

We’re very pleased to present a new exhibit by Corinne Flaws, “Crossing the Circle” – an adventure into the icy landscape south of the Antarctic Circle”.

Corinne is a landscape and wildlife photographer as well as a visual artist. This past January, she had a once in a lifetime adventure to Antarctica on an ice-breaker, exploring the Antarctic Peninsula.

The weather conditions were amazing and allowed the ship to go beyond the Antarctic
Circle, further south than even the ship’s captain had ever been before. The landscapes and wildlife were incredible and this show features some of Corinne’s favourites from the voyage.

With special guest presenter, David Johnston

Landscape photography is full of amazing overlooks and epic scenes. However, David wants to introduce us to a new way of seeing landscape photography – the contemplative way. In this presentation, He’ll teach us the steps we can take to slow down, see landscapes more intimately and capture creative photos. He hopes his presentation will help us to have a deeper appreciation for smaller scenes, see landscapes more creatively, and take more high quality images while we’re out.

David has been a professional landscape photographer and has over a decade of experience in teaching and helping people improve their nature photography, especially through podcasting and online video content and tutorials. In 2022 he founded Landscape Photography University, with workshop-style courses that aim to cover the range of needs to improve people’s photography skills while fitting within most people’s budgets.

You can see some of David’s beautiful nature photos on his website.

The meeting will be held via Zoom, on Wed. April 2, 2025, at 10 am PDT. The link will be sent by email to all Gabriola Photography Club members on the weekend before the meeting. Make sure your membership is up to date so that you receive this.

A note to non-members of our Club: you’re welcome to attend this event as a guest; be sure to contact us by March 31 to sign up.
