This Thursday will be our first DPI competition of the season in our new venue. The subject is ‘Open’ and our judge for the evening will be Jim LeFueve from Yeovil.

Jim says: “My enjoyment of photography is broad and includes almost any subject such as family, landscape, portrait, still life, theatre, events, gardens and our heritage.  The photographer’s art is fascinating; those choices made in representing the world.  So there is a lot of pleasure in viewing the work of others, be they famous names or enthusiastic club members.“

The images below were the highest scoring colour and mono images from our Open DPI competition last season.

Non-members are welcome to attend and can come along for up to 3 meetings before joining. We do ask that you pay the £2 entrance fee for those 3 evenings. We will be meeting at Southwick Village Hall at 7:30 (see map).

This Thursday we will be having a photo walk around Bath so there will be no meeting in the hall. We will be at the mercy of the weather, although at present it is looking OK, so fingers crossed.

We will meet up outside Bath Abbey at 7:00 pm, then split up into small groups or continue individually to spend the evening taking images of the city and people at night. Bring along your cameras, tripods etc.

There will be several cars going and lifts can be sorted out on the WhatsApp chat group in the week.

Non-members are welcome to come along and join us in Bath. Please make yourselves known to us (photographers loitering outside the Abbey).

There will be a members evening later in the season to show our images.

This Thursday will be the first meeting at our new venue, Southwick Village Hall, and it will be a members critique evening.

This is a chance for members to show and receive feedback on a selection of their images. Bring your prints or images on a memory stick (max 10 each).

It’s is not about showing your best work, although I’m sure we will see some excellent images. It is about having an opportunity to learn from constructive feedback from fellow photographers, in a friendly and fun environment.

If you have any images you’re not completely happy with, whether it’s from a technical point of view, or how it could be better edited, other members may be able to share their knowledge/experience and give you tips on how they could be improved.

Entries are due for the first DPI Competition (Open subject).

Non-members are welcome to attend and can come along for up to 3 meetings before joining. We do ask that you pay the £2 entrance fee for those 3 evenings. From 1^st October we will be meeting at Southwick Village Hall at 7:30 (see map).
