Studio Model

We have the opportunity to do some studio photography with a model. The date we have available is Sunday the 29th of July, 9am till 2pm.

We need to hire the Ploughman Hall to be able to do this, so there would be a cost of £6.00 per member attending. Once we know how many members are interested we an draw up a time table, we are looking at up to 3 members to attend at one time per hour.

If you are interested then please email me by return as we need to book the model and the venue.

Feast Exhibition 2012

Willingham Feast weekend is the 6th and 7th October.

We are hoping that we can run another exhibition this year. The library was being refurbished to enable self service last year so we were unable to use it as a venue. This year it is available again, so the exhibition will be returning there. This  means that we will need to wait for the library to close on the Saturday morning before we can set up.

We will be asking for volunteers to help with setting up and dismantling the exhibition, as well as members to be available to answer any questions that visitors to the exhibition may have. There will be a sign up sheet closer to the date.

We request that each member supply 2 photographs:

  • 1 photograph from our categories over the past year,
  • 1 photograph to be your free choice.

These need to be supplied by the Club Meeting on the 20th of August.

We need to get them printed so please crop your photos to 12 x 16 inches at 240 DPI resolution. If you don’t know how to change DPI then please just send them and Stephen will change this for you.

Please email them to art@mindakart.co.uk along with a title for the image, your name, telephone number and email address.

Improve Your Photography

Thanks to Francis for his presentation about how to Improve your Photography by Using Simple Camera Settings and Techniques. For those who missed the meeting, or anybody who wants an on-screen version of the handouts, the PDF can be downloaded here.

Macro Photography

Francis has given me a tutorial on Macro Photography which you can download here. It is a 40MB file, so it could take a few seconds to download depending on your broadband. It is also password protected – but you should have received the password in an email from Chris.
