Learn at home
A couple off years ago, the Outdoor Writers
of Canada held a convention in Fredericton,
New Brunswick. While some of the conven-
tion is basically just for fun and social in-
teraction, there are also some high powered
workshops involved as well.
On this particular occasion, the main
speaker was Lefty Kreh, one of the best out-
door photographers in the US. Lefty has pro-
bably sold more photos to outdoor
magazines on a consistent ongoing basis
then anyone I know, and he still is today.
Lefty started. talking to a full house on
Saturday morning and ran right through un-
til lunch. I have to admit that it's one of the
few times I've seen a speaker operate when
he didn't have to compete with background
conversations. He literally had everyone sit-
ting on the edge of their seat. Not only that,
but with a bit of coercion, he came back and
gave us another three full hours that same
afternoon.
His subject was just the nuts and bolts
methods to use in order to produce good
saleable interesting pictures. I felt the infor-
mation I picked up was more than worth the
entire cost of the convention, and I only ab-
sorbed a fraction of the tips he put across.
I've always felt since then, that if he were
speaking within striking distance, I would
make a special effort to go see him again
because I know it would be worthwhile.
I'm happy to report, however, that just
last weekend, I enjoyed another hour ses-
sion with Lefty and found it just as infor-
mative as the first time. Better yet, I did it
in my own home and it cost less than it
would have to drive to Toronto and back.
L.L. Bean in Freeport, Maine has• just
started up a video library and one of their
first subjects is the Guide To Outdoor
Photography featuring Lefty Kreh. They
couldn't have made a better choice.

proach to photography! which is bound to

help anyone from the rank amateur on up
take better pictures. It's not a technical
presentation, so if you want to get into lens
aberrations or equipment lineups, you're
bound to be disappointed. If, however, you
simply want to take better pictures, then
this is'a cheap way to learn how.
Lefty touches on equipment and ac-
cessories, film speeds, etc., but the real
meat of the film centers on composition and
lighting, the two most important points to
consider when making photographs. The
basic assumption is that you know how to
use your camera. Lefty shows you how to
use it with effect.
It would be impossible for me to try to ex
plain Lefty's techniques here, and even
harder to explain them as well as he does. It
suffices to say, that if you followed Lefty's
suggestions to the letter you would be taking
magazine quality photographs which you
would be proud to show off to your friends.
So how do you get ahold of this video?
There's two ways.
First, you can buy it directly from L.L.
Bean for $79.95 US. It sounds expensive, but
it's something you can refer back to time
b- and time again, and if you get together with
a few friends the price drops dramatically.
But, there's another way which might
work out just as well. If you write L.L.Bean,
and include a money order for $79.95 US, tell
them you wouldHlike to rent the tape. They'll
send it out to you with a return envelope in-
cluded. Then, you can have it for two weeks
By Stave Cooke
of viewing, return it to Bean's (it actually
has to be returned within 30 days, but I'd
allow one week each way for mailing) and
they'll refund you $54.95 US. The actual cost
for all the benefits is only $25 us. and believe
me, the increase in the quality of your
photos will more than make that pay.

provides funds for coaching instruction,
seminars and conferences as well as partial-
ly financing teams to travel to officially
recognized. sanctioned sporting competi-
tions.
Appoximately $2 million of the grants will
be used by the associations for travel ex-
penses.to provincial and national events. A
total of $687,581 will go to associations which
have teams participating in international'
competitions sanctioned by their Interna-
tional Sport Federation. '
The grants range from a minimum of
$1,100 to a maximum of $176,000 to the Cana-
dian Amateur Swimming' Association, On-
tario Section.

and 50 per cent of the total eligible costs.
"The grants will ultimately improve
leadership, increase participation and
develop Ontario athletes to national and in-
ternational levels. The program i,• a fine ex-'
ample of the partnership between the
Ministry and the private sector," Eakins
. said.
