CHAIRMANrsquoS CHAT

Chairmanrsquos message

Well 1st September 2010 was the first day of Spring Irsquove been looking forward to Spring

because I am hoping that it will inspire me to get out and take some better photographs I

wasnt really that motivated during the winter which seems to have lingered on and on so I am

hoping that the new season will encourage me to look for new photographic opportunities I

think that part of the demotivation was that I felt that my photography was in a bit of a rut

Sure I went out and got the photographs to submit to the club and most of them did get gold

awards but for me they were just more of the same thing I didnt really do anything new and

as a result I wasnt that excited about them I find that my photography happens in cycles in

that it alternates between exciting and boring I suppose that it happens to everybody and that

when it is boring and we need to challenge ourselves a little harder That is what improves our

photography

The C ERP S Congress is getting closer very quickly Whilst we had a setback with the

venue it has been sorted out and the Congress will now take place at the Edenvale Community

Centre There are some very good photographers who will be giving lectures on the day That

together with the interclub competition will make for a very enjoyable day I trust that it will be

well represented by Edenvale members who will make the club proud Although most of the

arrangements have already been made the committee will be asking members to assist in

advertising the Congress as widely as possible Also if there are any members who have

contacts with any companies that might sponsor the Congress the committee would love to hear

from you

You probably noticed that the newsletter was now being produced by Ted Kinsman Ted has

kindly taken over this portfolio Editing the newsletter takes a great deal of time and effort and

we are all very grateful to Ted for doing this job Another appointment to the committee was

Andrew Stephens Andrew has taken over the maintenance and development of the website

Fortunately for us Andrew has access to the necessary technical knowledge Although there

was nothing wrong with the original website which was kindly put together by Claudio Cecchi

Andrew is closer to the workings of the club so hopefully we can make it even a more useful

tool for the members I am sure that I speak on behalf of all of the members in saying a very

big thank you to Claudio

Just a reminder to all of the members that if they would like help with any aspect of their

photography they welcome to contact myself or any of the committee members who would be

happy to assist if they are able to This is an offer which is too good to refuse

Happy shooting

EPC MEMBER PROFILE

I bought my first camera Nikon FT2 manual focus in 1970 I always had the desire to take

photos of scenery flowers and animals My wife always complained that I took photos of

places and not people Fifteen years ago I was introduced to a photographic club which was 2

km from my home That was it From that time I have been hooked by photography

Previously I had other hobbies such as squash fishing and hiking and I was very involved with

these But photography is something else for me Concentrating on my hobby and being self-

taught accompanied by photographic books to read and by seeing and learning from the

photographic clubs that I am a member of Edenvale Jabula and Benoni and from certain

member photographers I reached the position I am at now

11 | P a g e

Generally I like all sorts of photography scenic landscapes wildlife nature portrait macro

photography and still-life

My pleasure is to look through my lens and see the subject I am photographing and this

astounds me I have taken photography very seriously

I learnt to use weather conditions for my photos the sunrise and sunset the mist and fog the

clouds the wind and bad weather With these conditions I compose my photos

Many times a year I leave on photographic trips and when I am not away I spend my weekends

taking photos all over Sometimes around here I had the luck to take better photos than on far

away trips After this systematic and dedicated work there is the price and acknowledgement I

have received many local and international medals and I hold honours APSSA digital pictorial

APSSA digital nature and honours APSSA slide pictorial I would like to thank all my

photographer friends for everything they offered me With photographic thanks

HUMOUR amp UNUSUAL

A Jack Daniels Fishing Story

I went fishing this morning but after a short time I ran out of worms Then I saw a

cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth Frogs are good bass bait

Knowing the snake couldnt bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind

the head took the frog and put it in my bait bucket

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit So I grabbed my bottle of

Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth His eyes rolled back he went limp I

released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog

A little later I felt a nudge on my foot There was that same snake with two frogs in his

mouth

Life is good in the South

EPC MEMBER PROFILE

I bought my first camera Nikon FT2 manual focus in 1970 I always had the desire to take

photos of scenery flowers and animals My wife always complained that I took photos of

places and not people Fifteen years ago I was introduced to a photographic club which was 2

km from my home That was it From that time I have been hooked by photography

Previously I had other hobbies such as squash fishing and hiking and I was very involved with

these But photography is something else for me Concentrating on my hobby and being self-

taught accompanied by photographic books to read and by seeing and learning from the

photographic clubs that I am a member of Edenvale Jabula and Benoni and from certain

member photographers I reached the position I am at now

11 | P a g e

Generally I like all sorts of photography scenic landscapes wildlife nature portrait macro

photography and still-life

My pleasure is to look through my lens and see the subject I am photographing and this

astounds me I have taken photography very seriously

I learnt to use weather conditions for my photos the sunrise and sunset the mist and fog the

clouds the wind and bad weather With these conditions I compose my photos

Many times a year I leave on photographic trips and when I am not away I spend my weekends

taking photos all over Sometimes around here I had the luck to take better photos than on far

away trips After this systematic and dedicated work there is the price and acknowledgement I

have received many local and international medals and I hold honours APSSA digital pictorial

APSSA digital nature and honours APSSA slide pictorial I would like to thank all my

photographer friends for everything they offered me With photographic thanks

HUMOUR amp UNUSUAL

A Jack Daniels Fishing Story

I went fishing this morning but after a short time I ran out of worms Then I saw a

cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth Frogs are good bass bait

Knowing the snake couldnt bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind

the head took the frog and put it in my bait bucket

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit So I grabbed my bottle of

Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth His eyes rolled back he went limp I

released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog

A little later I felt a nudge on my foot There was that same snake with two frogs in his

mouth

Life is good in the South

HUMOUR amp UNUSUAL

A Jack Daniels Fishing Story

I went fishing this morning but after a short time I ran out of worms Then I saw a

cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth Frogs are good bass bait

Knowing the snake couldnt bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind

the head took the frog and put it in my bait bucket

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit So I grabbed my bottle of

Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth His eyes rolled back he went limp I

released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog

A little later I felt a nudge on my foot There was that same snake with two frogs in his

mouth

Life is good in the South

EPC MEMBER PROFILE

I bought my first camera Nikon FT2 manual focus in 1970 I always had the desire to take

photos of scenery flowers and animals My wife always complained that I took photos of

places and not people Fifteen years ago I was introduced to a photographic club which was 2

km from my home That was it From that time I have been hooked by photography

Previously I had other hobbies such as squash fishing and hiking and I was very involved with

these But photography is something else for me Concentrating on my hobby and being self-

taught accompanied by photographic books to read and by seeing and learning from the

photographic clubs that I am a member of Edenvale Jabula and Benoni and from certain

member photographers I reached the position I am at now

HUMOUR amp UNUSUAL

A Jack Daniels Fishing Story

I went fishing this morning but after a short time I ran out of worms Then I saw a

cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth Frogs are good bass bait

Knowing the snake couldnt bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind

the head took the frog and put it in my bait bucket

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit So I grabbed my bottle of

Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth His eyes rolled back he went limp I

released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog

A little later I felt a nudge on my foot There was that same snake with two frogs in his

mouth

Life is good in the South

Generally I like all sorts of photography scenic landscapes wildlife nature portrait macro

photography and still-life

My pleasure is to look through my lens and see the subject I am photographing and this

astounds me I have taken photography very seriously

I learnt to use weather conditions for my photos the sunrise and sunset the mist and fog the

clouds the wind and bad weather With these conditions I compose my photos

Many times a year I leave on photographic trips and when I am not away I spend my weekends

taking photos all over Sometimes around here I had the luck to take better photos than on far

away trips After this systematic and dedicated work there is the price and acknowledgement I

have received many local and international medals and I hold honours APSSA digital pictorial

APSSA digital nature and honours APSSA slide pictorial I would like to thank all my

photographer friends for everything they offered me With photographic thanks
