The Spirit of Winnipeg Photography Exhibit




Lieutenant Governor John Harvard was on hand to officially open the Spirit of Winnipeg Photographic Exhibit at the Carol Shields Auditorium in the Millenium Library today.

Brook Jones, Vice-President of the Manitoba Camera Club was Master of Ceremonies (middle photo). Tony Brookes, a Past-President of the Manitoba Camera Club (bottom right) was clearly the driving force behind the development of the concept for the Exhibition. Congratulations to Tony Brookes and all the members of the Manitoba Camera Club for a successful exhibition. Thanks are also due to Bruno Legal of the Winnipeg Public Library.

Photographers who are featured include Tony Brookes, John Buchanan, Elaine Delannoy, Kenn Green, Brook Jones, Garry Shaefer, Vic Shertow, Jim Simpson and Barry Streimer. There are fifty excellent photographs - and among them are a series of stunning pictures by John Buchanan.
