ZOOM WORKSHOP WED OCT 19TH
The next Zoom workshop is on Wednesday 19th October at 7pm.
TOPIC: Make the most of what you capture.
Capturing good images is just the start; you also have to be able to process your images to make the most of each capture. Sometimes the image may need only minor adjustments, other times it might need a lot of work. Knowing where to start and when to stop with your editing is critical, and it is these ideas that Roy Killen will explain and explore in this workshop.
The workshop will be suitable for members at all levels and it does not matter what software you use or what subjects you like to photograph.
To join the workshop, follow the link on the club website. Login will open at 6.45pm.

October Club Night Reminder
Our next club night will be at the Valentine Bowling Club at 7.00pm on Tuesday 11th October and NOT the Wednesday night. This month our guest speaker will be Alex Hunter who will talk about his career as a photographer, accompanied by some of his images. Many of you know Alex but for some of our newer members Alex is one of the club’s life members. I encourage you to have a look at some of his work on the club’s website and you will see what an accomplished and passionate photographer he is. A talk not to be missed.
If you would like to enter one the club print competitions and you cannot make it to the club night with your prints you can always arrange for another club member to bring your prints along on the night and place them on the stands. Whilst you will not be able to hear the judges’ “live” comments at least your print will be scored and you will be offering valuable competition to the other entrants. I am at most print nights so if someone has prints and they would like them judged please contact me and drop off your prints at my place and I will ensure they get to the club night. Remember entries close 11.00pm Sunday 9th October. You still have time.
Again, can I encourage members who are attending the club nights to join the Valentine Bowling Club (VBC) as social members. The club is allowing us to use their upstairs function room without charge for our meetings and they welcome any support that our club can provide in return.
