Connecting through social media is all very well, but after a group of local photographers met at a marketing workshop last year they decided to meet again in real time.

B次元官网网址淲e thought we needed face-to-face group communications,B次元官网网址� says member Lis Bailly. The group meets every Sunday afternoon at Luz Gallery on Oak Bay Avenue to critique each othersB次元官网网址� work.

Bailly helped organize the group of fine art photographersB次元官网网址� first exhibit which opens April 2 at the Gallery at the MAC (McPherson Playhouse).

More than 60 works, black and white as well as colour, covering subjects from portraits to landscape will be on display.

The group is connected by a desire to work with a series of themes, hence the title of the show, Attachment. B次元官网网址淲eB次元官网网址檙e interested in taking the idea of photo series a bit further B次元官网网址� these arenB次元官网网址檛 just random shots,B次元官网网址� Bailly says about the exhibit. Whether itB次元官网网址檚 a girl holding her bike, a lone tree in a field, or a sunset over a river, the works explore connections and loss in images shot in both digital and film formats.

Attachment runs April 2 to May 27 at the Gallery at the Mac (by appointment), 625 Fisgard St.

There will be an opening night reception open to the public April 2 from 7 to 9 p.m. For more information about the show go to artstrata.com/artists.
