Our club outing to Wings of Paradise, butterfly conservatory has been confirmed. We have access to the conservatory before the general public, from 9 am until 10 am. During that time, you can use a tripod. At 10 AM the conservatory opens to the general public and tripods will need to be put away, but you can continue to photograph.

Date: Jan. 23
Time: 9:00
Cost: $11.00 each (must be paid to Tina before entry)

Location: Wings of Paradise Butterfly Conservatory, 2500 Kossuth Road, Cambridge, Ontario, N3H 4R7

The Conservatory is a humid, tropical environment. The extreme hot/cold change can cause fogging with cameras. One option is to place the camera in a zip-lock bag and allow the camera to adjust to the new temperature before removing it from the bag.

For those that have not signed up for the outing - you are still welcome - and we would love it if you could join us.
