Next Event
February 19, 2020 at 7:30 p.m. – Ron Long presents “The Beauty and Challenge of Flower Photography” (Their beauty is the challenge)
“I have given many talks that included hundreds of my wildflower photographs from around the world. This talk is a little different. I’m billing it as an instructional talk on how to make great flower photos and it will include tips that will be helpful to photographers. However the real purpose of this talk is to provide an excuse for me to present a collection of my very best flower photographs, most of which have not been seen before now. Non-photographer plant lovers and those who appreciate the beauty, art and design of nature will find much to enjoy.”
Bio: Ron Long was the sciences photographer at Simon Fraser University for 36 years. Over fifty years ago he developed an interest in native plants and flowers have been his favourite photographic subject ever since. Now retired, Ron travels to botanical hotspots around the world. Recent travels have taken him to Southern Africa (6x) South and Central America (6x), Australia and numerous botanical locations in North America. Ron is a past president of the Native Plant Society of BC, is a past board member of the Alpine Garden Club of BC and is active in the Botany section of the Vancouver Natural History society.
