Spartus Press camera. Press? Really?<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. In the upper right of page 1 in this issue is the Spartus Press camera<\/a> – believed to be the first with built-in flash! But Press? A box camera and rudimentary lens?<\/p>\n

As the second month of 2021 is rapidly fading, the energetic rollout of COVID-19 vaccines has hit a bit of a speed bump up here while COVID-19 variations are beginning to surface. Nevertheless, close adherence to common sense guidelines brings a bit of sunshine and hope that all the COVID related restrictions will end sometime this year so we can get on with life.<\/p>\n

In any case, our editor extraordinaire, Sonja Pushchak, and her team have composed this latest issue of PHSC News (20-08). As shown on page one we are celebrating Black History month with pix from the Jazz greats of the last century. Take a moment now to read the articles in this issue and ease your personal<\/em> troubles and cares!<\/p>\n

Page 1 features photos of Jazz greats of the 1930s in the article, “This Sweet Jam<\/em>“. Next, in place of the usual PHSC Presents article on this month’s speaker, is the essay, “A Valentine Ode to Memory and Italian Grandmothers<\/em>“.\u00a0Page 3 in the column PHOTO BOOK 101, has an essay titled, “When Harry met Eleanor<\/em>“; while page 4 explains how Alberta\u2019s Time Machine is Broken <\/em>in the column called, “THE CROSS-PROVINCE FILE”.<\/p>\n

Page 5 discusses The Two Contradictory Faces of Shirley <\/em>in the “STREAMABLES” column.\u00a0David does his tongue-in-cheek Equipment Review<\/em>, on gear for a VLOG in “Zoom and the Art of Self-Image Maintenance<\/em>“. Hilarious.\u00a0followed by a page of links to BBC Newses’ Haunting images of America’s painful past; how to see the\u00a0<\/em>RPS Archive free online; and Canon’s celebration of the making of its 150-millionth lens! Wow.<\/p>\n

Not to be overlooked,\u00a0Page 8 features a poster on our forth-coming ZOOM event – <\/em>Jamie Day Fleck’s movie on the Armenian Photographer known as KIRK<\/a>.\u00a0On page 9, Ivy & Izzy banter again, this time about a \u201cLove Letter to a Stranger<\/em>\u201c.\u00a0And \u00a0we wrap up with the ever popular classifieds on page 10.<\/p>\n

P.S. As usual, every<\/em> link shown in the newsletter is a hot link just waiting for your click!<\/p>\n

P.P.S. You can visit this issue by clicking here<\/a>, or by g0ing to the menu item NEWSLETTER<\/a>\u00a0at the top of the page. There is a drop down menu<\/a> that takes you to older issues dating back a couple of decades to the very beginning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
