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.
