Painting the Big Red Lighthouse, photo by Darrell Gulin

The Grand Rapids Camera Club and Canon is presenting a day of education and fun with Canon Explorer of Light Darrell Gulin on May 10, 2008. You can get all the details and registration information in the Grand Rapids Flickr group.

Darrell is a full time nature and travel photographer and is past President of the North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA). He makes his home in Sammamish, Washington and you can see much more of his work at his web site, gulinphoto.com. He took this photo when he was in Holland last August giving a program. They did an early morning shoot at the Big Red Lighthouse, painting it with a powerful flashlight.

From the Grand Rapids Camera Club (GRCC) web site, I learned that the GRCC is the oldest camera club in the United States (in continuous and uninterrupted existence) and was organized in 1898 as an outgrowth of the Valley City Photographic Society.
