SUMMARY:Virtual Meeting: Paul Hoelen - "Men with Heart" documentary project.
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Meeting – Zoom details  \nPlease refer to email to all Members for Zoom login details for this virtual meeting – the email will be sent a couple of days in advance of the event. \nVisitors are welcome to join our Thursday night meetings – please email Vice President Lesley Bretherton for further information <lesley.bretherton@melbournecameraclub.org.au> \nFor this meeting only we are extending our invite to all Camera Clubs in Victoria through VAPS and the public. This presentation will be simultaneously cast on Youtube. Feel free to join in using this link https://youtu.be/ZYeYk-Z6p80 \nPaul is a Grand Master of Photography fluent in a wide range of genres through his career with a strong conservation and humanitarian focus. He judges regularly at a state\, national and international level\, runs photography workshops worldwide and writes for numerous magazines and publications\, He is a member of the progressive modern landscape photography collaborative The Light Collective\, is an Ambassador for Asukabook Australasia and his fine art  work is represented by One Fine Print in Australia and Source Photographica in Australia and the USA. \nMen With Heart Description \nIn a time when much of the world’s media is choosing to focus on the darker side of what men are capable of\, the Men with Heart project provides a refreshing\, welcome and important counterbalance by portraying the open-heartedness\, courage\, and vulnerability of men coming together to face their issues and work on becoming better men. Better fathers\, brothers\, partners and sons. \nShot in complete confidentiality over almost two decades\, this documentary exhibition presents a deeply unique body of work in both its intimacy and scope intended to both challenge and explore what defines healthy masculinity in Australian culture today. This powerfully moving multi-media exhibition has already won multiple awards for its impact on the health and well-being of both men and boys in Australia and is preparing to tour the country. \nPaul will explore ideas and learnings about how to approach such intimate and long term documentary work as a photographer through the lens of this project. \nYou can view some of the work at www.menwithheart.com.au

SUMMARY:Virtual Meeting: Guest Speaker – Ricardo Da Cunha  “A path towards more meaningful imagery”
DESCRIPTION:Please refer to email to all Members for Zoom login details for this virtual meeting – the email will be sent a couple of days in advance of the event. \nRicardo Da Cunha\nMy images aim to portray a world that I seek; one that is simple\, silent and devoid of the noise that increasingly dominates our complicated and distracted lives. I like to give my subjects space for them to breathe\, just like I need to find space so that my soul can breathe. Photography gives me the silence that I increasingly desire.\n \nMy images are often not true interpretations of what my camera sees\, but more importantly to me\, they are true interpretations of the stories that I want to tell. Ultimately I aim to produce images with a vision to inspire people to simplify their lives and appreciate the very few things that truly matter and bring us a feeling of contentment. It’s this underlying vision that guides the choices I make in my photography\, along with my heart and intuition.\n \nRicardo will be speaking on a subject dear to his heart and true to his principles – ‘A path towards more meaningful imagery’. This presentation will endeavor to invite you to take your photography to a deeper place\, and in doing so\, deliver greater fulfilment in your photography.\n \n

During a career spanning over 35 years his photographs have been featured in publications such as Australian Geographic\, Australian Photography Magazine\, GEO\, Sports Illustrated\, Outback Magazine\, Reader’s Digest and more. He has photographed a vast range of subjects\, including sport\, news\, celebrities\, commercial\, industry\, travel\, wildlife\, fashion and portraits.

SUMMARY:Portrait Group Annual Outdoor Shoot
DESCRIPTION:Well\, after a very trying year\, we finally roll around to December and find that we are in a position where we can hold our Portrait Group Annual Outdoor Shoot! As usual\, we will meet up at 6pm\, then shoot by natural light as long as we can. We may continue shooting by flash if the models are willing to go on (and someone brings flashes). \nAs I said\, a difficult year\, and we are not 100% through the pandemic\, which has affected how we run this event. For example\, we can’t revert back to the studio if weather is bad\, and we need a COVID-safe plan. \nMEETING TIME: Monday 7 December 2020 at 18:00 \nMEETING LOCATION: At 800 Collins St\, Docklands\, VIC\, 3008 (Myer HQ) – https://goo.gl/maps/MdGRWp78pYTfaSd36 \n \nFrom this location we can hopefully make use of the nearby community gardens and move down towards the water and Webb Bridge if the weather is good\, or shoot under awnings along Collins St if the weather is poor. And afterwards – there are some nice pubs on the South side. \nCOST: $10 – I know we don’t usually charge for the outdoor shoot\, but we will have some extra expenses running it this year. Please bring a $10 note! \nCOVID RESTRICTIONS: \n\nEvent is limited to 30 attendees (not counting coordinators or models)\nContact details of all attendees to be recorded by coordinators\nMasks are to be worn (except by models when being shot)\nHand sanitiser will be made available\, its use is encouraged\nSocial distancing (1.5 metres) to be maintained where possible\n\nI realise these restrictions are probably stricter than mandated by DHHS\, but Portrait Group (and MCC in general) are taking a cautious approach given the demographic of our members. \nI’m looking forward to seeing the group face-to-face again!
