Narooma Camera Club

Narooma Camera Club is back for 2021 with a full committee on board this year and they are keen and ready to have a great year.

We have lined up Federation of Camera Club approved judges for our Monthly Subjects who will be doing remote judging and then we will be doing up powerpoint presentation with the feedback and for our paid members we have also set up a private Youtube channel so if you don't feel Covid ready to come along to meetings you can still watch and get feedback on line. We are also in the planning stages for our Easter Long Weekend Exhibition so keep an eye out for that.

Our first set subject was MONOCHROME photography.

 We had a great start with 15 Members entering 43 images for judging.

The Set Subject for our February Competition was “Monochrome” and, as usual we also ran an Open competition across our three grades.
 
 We were very fortunate to have Colin Schofields as our Judge for the month.
 
 Colin has completed the NSW FCC Judges’ course, and mentors new judges. He regularly judges local and national competitions, and has worked with many well-known photographers in Australia. Colin enjoys helping others in the field as he has a very sound knowledge of camera technology, and also enjoys helping people to use Photoshop. Colin enjoys most forms of photography. He believes in planning a photograph and getting the camera settings right before taking the shot. Colin considers photography a very supportive hobby, where people enjoy sharing their knowledge and helping others to develop their skills.
 
 Narooma Camera Club would like to sincerely thank Colin for providing us with his insightful feedback on our images, and useful hints on how to improve our photography. We all appreciate the time and effort Colin put in to judging our February competition for us.
