Meeting 12th December: Enprint competition

This Thursday we will be holding an Enprint competition for the Dicks Trophy. Enprints are a smaller print format – 6″x4″ or 7″x5″. This will be an open topic, so anything goes – it could be some of your older snaps or photos for a bit of fun, or perhaps images with impact.


Bring your prints (6″x4″ or 7″x5″) on the night (4 maximum) – no need for mounting, just write the title and your Membership number on the back. The winner will be judged by the members.


Non-members are welcome to come along for up to 3 taster meetings before joining. All we ask is that you pay the £2 entrance fee for those 3 evenings. We meet at St Thomas’ church hall at 7:30 (see map).

Meeting 28th November: DPI competition – Open theme.

This week’s meeting is our second DPI Competition – “Open” (Any Subject Any Genre).

A welcome return to Alistair Ritchie from Backwell Camera Club. Alistair is interested in all aspects of photography, particularly studio work, dance/music/street and nature.  Being no great stickler for rules and more driven by the emotional impact of an image, Alistair is an excellent choice for our Open themed competition.

Change to meeting 14th November

Unfortunately our presenter for Thursday night, Bob Bishop has come down with a particularly nasty tummy bug and is unlikely to be able to make it on the evening.


Fortuitously Jeff Barber is able to come to the rescue with a more in depth talk on Lightroom and image management. It was very clear from last week’s excellent talk that he has a great deal more to offer us, so we intended to schedule another session later in the season. Bringing it forward to this week will give it continuity, a chance to discuss some of the finer points, and an opportunity for more questions.  Bring your questions on image management, lightroom and anything computer related. Looking forward to another interesting and educational meeting.


We will schedule Bob for his presentation in the new year.

Submissions will still be due for the DPI Competition – “Open” (Any subject, any genre).


Non-members are welcome to come along for up to 3 taster meetings before joining. All we ask is that you pay the £2 entrance fee for those 3 evenings. We meet at St Thomas’ church hall at 7:30 (see map).
