If you want to see the country of China, you will want to attend the Tuesday, Nov. 12 meeting of the SCC Photo Club at 6:30 p.m. in the Caper Room.
Club Vice-President Robert H. Trivus is a photographer who frequently travels with a digital camera, searching for the ideal picture of something of meaning or of beauty, be it a person, building or tranquil scene. The photographs he will present at the meeting were taken in mainland China in 2012 and represent only a small portion of the many separate images taken there.
Dr. Trivus’ photographs have graced 15 magazine covers. A photograph of jellyfish taken at the Vancouver Aquarium was selected as a 2007 Grand Prize winner. Two of his photos won second-place awards in June 2004 at the Pittsburgh Arts Festival. Since May 2004, his work has been on display at various exhibits in New York City, Atlanta, Georgia, Toronto, Canada, San Diego and San Francisco California, Washington, DC, New Orleans, Louisiana, Oahu, Hawaii, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Sun City Center, Florida. He is credited with many other accolades at museums and libraries throughout the country.
Community members and guests are welcome to attend. The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. in the Caper Room with a tutorial. After a short business meeting at 7 p.m., the program will begin. Club meetings are open to all in the area.
