Toronto<\/strong>. Old Photo Collectors sometimes divide a collection into sub-groups. One possibility is animals, or birds. In the old plates and films days, it was difficult to capture wild bird photos, making them a bit hard to find.<\/p>\n

Ben captured this image of a baby mute swan with a Canon APS-C digital camera coupled with a telephoto ZOOM lens. You can read Kim Bunermann’s<\/a> article in the latest issue of Digital Camera World.

This year the Trunk Sale is on the grounds of the Legion Hall 101 in Long Branch (where we host our auctions). Details and a poster will be pinned to the site in a few weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
