Click Bahamas Photography Show - Fri. May 23

The Ladder Gallery at NPCC on Blake Road
is pleased to host the photography exhibition of
CLICK BAHAMAS
in a three week show
Opening this Friday, May 23, 2008 at 7 pm.

CLICK BAHAMAS is an online FaceBook group for avid photographers to share their images, ideas and techniques. "I heard about a new group forming and asked Elena DeSouza, one of the founding members, if she would be interested in putting a show together," said Gillian Watson, curator at the Ladder Gallery. "Together we came up with the unique concept of creating a show based on a peer online voting process." The rules were simple. Upload your favorite images, place them into one of seven categories and then vote for your favorite images. All of the communication for the entire show took place on line. Entrants were given a certain deadline for images to be entered and voting took place over the course of a weekend. Of the nearly 500 images on the group page more than 50 were chosen for this show. "It seems to me to be a really democratic way of creating a show. This really is for the people, by the people," said Mrs Watson. "I'm quite excited to see what it is like when these people are all together in the same room. The show opens on Friday night at 7pm and all are invited to meet the photographers and see their work. For more information on CLICK BAHAMAS join their group on FaceBook. For more information on the Ladder Gallery email gillian@npcconline.org.

Stained Glass at Christ The King Church

I was at a primary school graduation held at Christ The King Anglican Church some time ago. I was dazzled by their beautiful stained glass windows and was glad for the opportunity to shoot a few.

Christ the King Anglican Church, is located Ridgeland Park, West in Nassau, N.P.

Vividly Tribal

By KARAN MINNIS, Guardian Lifestyles Reporter
karan@nasguard.com


From tribal Indians to pirates, from explorers to slave traders — The Bahamas is a nation built on centuries of rich and fascinating history. According to Bahamasgateway.com, it all started with the Siboney Indians, the first known residents of The Bahamas, that survived here about 7,000 years ago by living on conch and fishing.

After the Siboneys disappeared, the Arawak Indians, also called Lucayans, migrated to the islands from the Amazon region of South America, explains the website. And the Lucayans prospered, with an estimated population of around 40,000 by the late 15th century. Most historians believe they developed an advanced political and social structure and lived in well-organized cities.

Shortly after Christopher Columbus arrived in 1492, the Siboneys were exterminated by the Spanish, and as a result, little is known about them.

Local photographer Farreno "F. Dot" Ferguson has created his own "modern" version of that history. And this interpretation entitled "Tribal" will be on display, Saturday, October 27 at 10:30 p.m. at Da Balcony Lounge.

Ferguson will host a photography exhibition based on his newest series called "Vivid," which he says is a modern day reflection of our history.

Derek Roderick Photography

At the age of 10, Derek bought his first 35mm camera, and spent the summer shooting black and white land photos, and developing the film in his bedroom closet.

14 years later Derek became a professional scuba diver, and got his first real taste for underwater imaging while shooting video on shark dives in Nassau.

Since then Derek has traveled, and worked as a diver extensively, throughout the Bahamas, Florida Keys, Mexico, Hawaii, Palau, Yap, and the Philippines.

With Camera in hand on over 3,000 dives, as well as taking land photography throughout his travels, Derek proudly displays a sample of his art for your enjoyment.
