Report by Jenny Barraclough

We recently held our 5th digital image competition of the season. Judged by Glyn Bareham LRPS CPAGB .

His results (out of 20) were:-

Due to the large number of images entered, the Monochrome digital image section has been included on the Print competition night.

New members are still coming along too, so we hope they will continue into the next season.

The London Salon Exhibition was shown last week, which always provokes many comments and discussion.

 

This week we are hosting a Battle with Herne Bay Camera Club so that should be a good evening seeing other clubs work.

 

Next week will be our 5th Print Competition of the season, with the 6th Digital Image Competition the following week. We are also competing with
Canterbury, Deal & District, Gateway & Isle of Thanet Camera Clubs for the EURO TUNNEL CHALLENGE TROPHY next week.

Friday will also be our monthly Practical evening, where members can practice with the studio lighting.

Our meetings are held at the St. Georges Church, Audley Road, Folkestone (on the corner of Shorncliffe Road, opposite West Station) on Mondays at 7.45pm.

New members are always welcome and anyone interested in joining, please, ring Jenny Barraclough (Press Officer) 01303 245399 or e mail:  jenny-bar@dsl.pipex.com for further information.
