"Don't shoot what it looks like. Shoot what it feels like." - David Alan Harvey
Next Monday Night – Portraits
Monday, the 3rd of April is a practical Portrait session. If you have a lighting setup, please bring it along and we can practice our portrait skills. These evenings are usually fun, and social events.
Last Monday Night – "Wildlife"
Robbie O'Leary is a fantastic wildlife photographer and presenter. We were treated to a brilliant evening with Robbie and his favourite images. It was wonderful to see Robbie's images and to hear about the approach and philosophy behind his images. Congratulations to Robbie on the success of his coasters.
URGENT- Please Collect Your Printed Images
We are under pressure to tidy up our storage unit in the school. We have a significant number of unclaimed images stored in the school. These include prints from the recent competition, the last Shoot With Me showcases and also from earlier events – even before the Covid disruption.
So please come to collect your prints on Monday evening or arrange for another member to collect them on your behalf.
IPF Liaison Role
In light of the lack of volunteers for this role, the Committee has decided to collectively take on the job in the short term. If anyone feels like helping the Club and taking on this position, please contact us.
