PHOTOGRAPHY CHALLENGE 2024
This year a new learning opportunity is being offered to club members in the form of a Photography Challenge. This is a personal challenge, not a competition.
Members who participate will select an area of interest (e.g. portraits) and work through a guided series of activities to improve their capture and editing techniques. They will meet with other club members in Zoom sessions to share their progress and receive advice from a mentor. Detailed information is available here.

Photoshoot for January
Our first workshop for Wednesday January 24th will be a boardwalk and sunset photoshoot at “Pirrita Island” Swansea beginning at 6pm with the sunsetting over the lake at 8pm. This area offers plenty of photographic opportunities so come along and enjoy the fun! There will be no workshop at VBC!
We will meet in the car park at approx 5.50pm. Finding the carpark is easy with a Google Maps search for “Pirrita Island carpark and foreshore” giving exact location. You should be on a bitumen road with caravan park on your LHS.
Bring your camera and maybe some insect repellant ( there maybe some sand flies and mozzies)
See you there GregC

Zoom Workshop for January
Hi to everyone and welcome to 2024. To kickstart the year our first Zoom presentation will be held at 7pm on Wednesday January 17th. For those new to the club most of our Zoom nights are held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month with a start time of 7pm.
This month photographer Colin Harrison from Great Britain will be sharing some of his outstanding images in an award winning AV presentation .
Colin has written” Zoom Title – My journey in the Audio Visual World.” Three years ago having gained the EFIAP/d3 salon qualification, I decided to get back into producing audio visual sequences after a very long break. My AVs are mainly short and light-hearted, and I try to bring my creative skills into them. My mission statement is to entertain the audience. Recently I have received an AV exhibition silver medal in the UK and an AV Salon medal in Poland for my sequences. You will see a variety of subject matter in my talk including Death Valley, Grand Canyon, creative flower photography and ghost towns. Many of the images from my talk can be seen on my website www.colinharrisonphotography.uk
Please use the Zoom link, which can be found on our website, to join the Zoom meeting from 6.45pm. Everyone is welcome including some members of the Wangi Club who will be joining us.
See you there GregC
