DEEPINGS CAMERA CLUB

Developing Awareness of the Art of Photography.

The club offers a warm welcome to all with an interest in

photography.

Whether you are a complete beginner or advanced worker, you

will find something of interest, and a warm friendly atmosphere.

With the rapid growth in Digital Photography, the club fully

embraces the new technology.

Our monthly Practical Mondays will be on many subjects over the

year. The first will consider how to mount and display work in a

variety of ways, not only for monthly competitions, but also

exhibitions. Others may be about Photoshop techniques or

portraiture or anything else; the choice is ours.

The regular league competitions serve both to educate and

entertain, and can be great fun.

Whilst we draw on visiting speakers from all over the country, we

also have a number of very experienced members who will give

talks on their specialist subjects.

Everyone in the club is willing to help beginners of all ages by

sharing their own experience and knowledge.

KEY Red - Deadlines

Blue - Club Nights not on a Wednesday Night
