“Why do I take photographs? More than the spontaneous image or the thoughtful portrait, it is the unpredictable pleasure of photography that glues me to my camera” (Hugo Burnand).
Hugo Burnand was born on 24th Sept 1963, in Cannes, France.
He first learnt about developing pictures and printing photographs on the kitchen table at home with his mother, the photographer Ursy Burnand. With all the windows shuttered, and the dark room assembled among the pots, kitchen sink and saucepans, they developed her photographs together. With his mother beside him, Hugo’s lifelong passion for photography was born.

The second time this year already I’ve seen hail come down. With the changes in our environment, the natural disasters world wide it really doesn’t come as a major surprise – still, not something I want to be standing out in when it’s coming down!
It’s Back! The Lake Shore Gospel Hall has been putting on a mid week program in Theford for some time now at the Royal Canadian Legion. I believe this is the third “instalment” of the program that we have been able to take part in. It’s a free program for the kids to come out for the hour of songs, challenges, Bible lessons, games and a snack. Everyone is welcome, and the kids love it. Check it out, starting tonight at 6:30 at the Royal Canadian Legion – 43 Nelson street in Thedford.
I happened to see this in a Facebook ad last night. Interesting concept.
