Welcome back to the Vale Photographic Club!
We will start the season with a look at some of your photographic efforts taken since we last met. Please bring up to 5 of your favourite prints (no need for formal mounting) and 5 of your favourite PDIs.
Mike Baker will present a selection of his AVs, with insight as to how they were produced.
This will be our first competition of the season.
Members may submit up to one colour print and one monochrome print. These should be sturdily mounted in a mount not exceeding 500x400mm, and labelled with the image title, membership number (not name) and number of the Competition. They should be handed in on the evening of the competition.
Members may also submit one colour digital image (DPI) as a jpeg file, AND one monochrome DPI. They should be sized to be no greater than 1920 pixels along the horizontal edge and no greater than 1080 pixels along the vertical edge. The file name should be allocated in the format:
title -membership number – competition number, (e.g. Sand castle_17_Comp1).
Nick Craddock will be giving a talk about one of his wildlife photography projects.
This will be our first WIP session of the season.
Members are asked to select two prints that they consider to be “works in progress” and, in case numbers are smaller than anticipated, up to three “spares” to be used if time permits i.e. up to five prints altogether. The prints do not need to be mounted and can be any size up to A3. Members who do not have a printer – please contact [email protected].
At the hall, tables will be laid out for 3 groups. Before the tea break, each group will discuss one print, before moving on to the next. After the tea break, each photographer will have the opportunity to show each of their prints to the members present, and provide a commentary on their own thoughts and any suggestions received.
