Last fall, Gabriola Photography Club member Ron Rivers journeyed to South America, spending almost two weeks in Ecuador, including close to a week on the remote Galapagos Islands.

He’ll be showcasing that adventure in a presentation to our club at our meeting on Wed., Feb. 4.

Ron will share his photos of Quito, the ancient capital of the Incan Empire, and of the equator – both the “French Equator” and the real equator.

He’ll also take us to the unique and precious Galápagos Islands, the volcanic archipelago located 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador – home to iconic wildlife including several species of boobies, giant tortoises and marine iguanas.
