Newsletter 13/03/22

Good afternoon, all

Many thanks to the members who managed to take 7 (or 6 images) in 7 days and for presenting them; it was great to see the good response and all the different images on show.

Next time we should perhaps set the challenge when it’s warmer!

Thanks also to all members who submitted prints for our first exhibition on 9th April. If anyone wishes to bring any prints in, PLEASE do so by next Wednesday, March 16th. We still need 1 more volunteer, by the way, for Friday 8th April for a couple of hours. Please help!

I hope everyone has now received the Events Cup destination list and the dates are now in your diaries! We are looking forward to members taking part in some, if not all, the visits.

A reminder of some March dates:

March 16th. As we mentioned last Wednesday David Bibby was booked to give a presentation entitled ‘My way with AV’ but he had caught Covid. Dave has confirmed that he is still testing positive and therefore he has cancelled for Wednesday.

So, in his place, John has booked Ric Gillams and his talk is ‘Self Drive in Namibia’. Zoom invite below if you need it.

Below is from his website:

About me: When I first started shooting my emphasis was always on finding new places and things to photograph. More recently I am interested in capturing moments in time. Through my 365 projects from 2015 and 2016 I have started to appreciate the beauty in the everyday things I walk past and at the same time have developed the technical ability to capture moments and to get creative in both my choice of shutter speeds and my composition.

The ability to quickly adapt to new situations and to feel completely at one with your equipment is absolutely necessary when shooting weddings, which I thoroughly enjoy. The interaction with people and the opportunity to capture that once in a lifetime occasion and to preserve those memories forever is a real honour and has to be the best reason for getting out of bed in the morning!

I have been fortunate enough to travel to many fantastic places and meet lots of great people. As a result, my photography spans a range of genres, whether I’m shooting a wedding in a sleepy village in England, wildlife in Africa, racing cars at Goodwood or street photography in Tokyo. It is all great practice for being able to get the shot when the moment comes.

March 19th – Saturday. The club is running a coffee morning at the Arts Centre. If anyone is willing to help out, they would be very welcome! From approx. 9.30 – 12.30. Also, we will need some cakes/biscuits/or anything edible to sell! Please have a word with Mike or Lewis when we next meet.

March 20th. Last submission for the L&CPU Annual Club Competition. We would only enter the PDI sections, not prints. We are entering the ‘Open’ and ‘Nature’ sections. Details in previous newsletters – any questions? Just email us, no problem!

March 23rd. Committee meeting.

March 30th. Beginners ‘software editing’ session. Looking at Lightroom again and/or some Photoshop tools or you could bring in some images (preferably RAW), to be processed or process them yourself!

Good Morning All!

Fine weather today – ready for (or started) the 7 in 7?

A few dates: March is a busy month!

March 2nd. Judging of the ‘Anything Goes Cup Competition’ by Will Stead, live in the Arts Centre.

March 9th. Workshop – members challenged to taking one photograph each day for seven consecutive days. It would be great if members could email us or chat this Wednesday, to say whether they are taking part so that we can judge the numbers involved. Like we have mentioned before you don’t have to stand up at the front you can ‘talk’ from your seat!

March 16th. Presentation by David Bibby entitled ‘My way with AV’.

March 19th – Saturday. The club is running a coffee morning at the Arts Centre. If anyone is willing to help out, they would be very welcome! Also, we will need some cakes/biscuits/or anything edible to sell! Please have a word with Mike or Lewis when we next meet.

March 23rd. Committee meeting

March 30th. Beginners ‘software editing’ session. Looking at Lightroom again and/or some Photoshop tools or you could bring in some images (preferably RAW), to be processed or process them yourself!

Talking of beginners, I’m starting to learn Photoshop! Having scoured the internet and come across some fairly good ‘tutorials’ I have finally found one that is very good. And, it’s FREE!

If you are interested, or just curious, the website is https://www.shutterevolve.com

It’s run by a guy called Jimmy McIntyre and when you log onto the site click ‘Free Stuff’ on the strap line at the top. You will then see ‘The Ultimate FREE Photoshop Bundle for Photographers’!

When you sign up (which is free) you’ll receive three products to download:

  • The Easy Panel – FREE Luminosity Mask Panel for Photoshop.
  • Our FREE Photoshop Beginner’s Course For Photographers.
  • The Essential Guide to Luminosity Mask FREE download e-book.

The Photoshop beginners guide (part 2) is split into 3 parts:

  1. Photoshop beginners’ part 1
  2. Photoshop beginners’ part 2
  3. Photoshop beginners’ part 3 – this part is devoted to Camera RAW

Each part is literally crammed with ‘stuff’, but it’s all, in my ‘umble opinion, cracking material! You really need to watch several times to take it in. Anyway, give it a go if you are interested.

There are loads of things on his website and obviously he is trying to sell it, but having ‘signed-up’ I have had no problems with lots of emails asking me to buy – and you can always unsubscribe at any time. Give it a go?

L&CPU Annual Club Competition.

Members! Would you like us to put an entry together for this competition?

We would only enter the PDI sections, not prints.

For the ‘Open’ section the club can enter up to 16 images in total from a minimum of 5 photographers and a maximum of 4 entries per person.

For the ‘Nature’ section we can enter up to 8 images from a minimum of 5 photographers and a maximum of 2 entries per person.

We could put an entry into the ‘Open’ section using images from the recent PAGB competition. We had 5 people entered in that and the entries would be eligible. We would need to select the entries but Lewis would do this based mainly on the scores from the last competition. If anyone else wishes to enter or anyone wants to use a different photo that is good, no problem.

For the ‘Nature’ section we would need 2 more people to submit photos to put together an entry.

If we are to do it, we need entries by March 20th.

We will need to make a decision on Wednesday evening please.

First Exhibition: 9th April to 7th May

‘Open’; this is for any print that was not among the winners of any competition. Please label the print, on the back, with your title and name – thanks.

We need the prints in by March 9th PLEASE!

We still need 1 more volunteer please for the Friday 8th April in the afternoon for a couple of hours – please see Mike or Lewis.

March 2nd. Judging of the ‘Anything Goes Cup Competition’ by Will Stead, live in the Arts Centre. Final internal competition – where does the time go eh? Good luck to all who have entered, and, don’t forget, points mean prizes!

March 9th. Workshop – members challenged to taking one photograph each day for seven consecutive days.

Consecutive days? Theme? Where? – all your choice. Time’s ticking!

March 16th. Presentation by David Bibby entitled ‘My way with Audio Visual’.

Exhibition reminder:

9th April – 7th May – this is for any print that was not among the winners of any competition. Please label the print, on the back, with your title and name – thanks. Prints in by 9th March PLEASE.

Eva polack (Impressionist Photography): idea from Anne

A talk on the artistic side of photography. She will offer an introduction to the visual language of photography to help us capture expressive and artistic images.

As mentioned at the last meeting: a possible virtual photography talk. The main aim of the talk is to encourage people to try out various approaches to image-making and to help them develop their own way of photographing.

These talks are about £100 a go, so, if enough interest is expressed by members, I’ll investigate further.

Short (ish) and sweet today!

A few reminders:

February 16th: Two presentations by Robin, ‘live’ – one will be on The Falklands and the second will be on Bhutan.

February 23rd: Beginner’s ‘software editing’ session.

Morning All!

First of all, a big thanks to Jim Cunningham for his constructive, positive, and helpful feedback on the images for ‘The Humanity Cup’. We should also appreciate, I think, the time he must have taken in not only judging but also in his preparation.

Secondly, congratulations to John for winning the overall prize for the best ‘in competition of the three winners’, with ‘The Fiddle Player’.

Thirdly, thanks to Rhona and Tim for entering, very promptly, the Humanity Cup winners on to the Facebook page and the website page, respectively.

Fourthly, last but not least, in case you missed it, congratulations go to Anne (Hardy) for receiving the Chairman’s Choice for her entry in to the PAGB GB Cup with ‘Gotcha’ – maximum score of 15 points; well done, Anne!

Exhibition

BIG thanks here to Maurice who is co-ordinating the display.

We are looking for 2/3 volunteers to come and help us put up the images in the Arts Centre; it should take only a couple of hours. Not sure at the moment of the exact time and date; probably the Saturday morning of the 9th. PLEASE contact us if you can spare the time – Cheers!

Beautiful day – in between storms?

We hope you have been managing to get that camera out-and-about now that the days are drawing out!

Dates:

February 2nd: We have the judging of the ‘Humanity Cup Competition’ by Jim Cunningham ‘live’ in the Arts Centre. Zoom invite below, if needed. PLUS – don’t forget, deadline for ‘Anything Goes Competition’, prints and digital images.

February 16th: 2 presentations by Robin, ‘live’ – one will be on The Falklands and the second will be on Nepal.

Poss! February 23rd – In the pipeline, so to speak, we are thinking of doing another ‘software editing’ session. The ‘gathering’ we had last Wednesday, (26th January), proved, I think, very productive, so we are thinking of repeating. We could look at Lightroom again and/or some Photoshop tools or you could bring in some images (preferably RAW), to be ‘processed’. Anyway, these are our thoughts so if you are interested, please email or speak to us at the next meetings.

Morning All!

We had a nice few hours’ out at Condor Pool and Glasson (five of us) and took some pics, though, writing personally, I think, no winners, but a good social gathering nevertheless!

Big thanks to Stan, for his & teams selections presented last Wednesday; some excellent and positive comments given.

And, thanks also to John for showing his skills and knowledge during the workshop, using Lightroom and Photoshop editing, of members images;

Gentlemen, your time, trouble and organisation are very much appreciated by us all.

Dates:

January 26th: although no meeting was planned, for this Wednesday, Lewis and I are doing a back-to-the-start software editing session; i.e., basics. So, if you think Photoshop is a place where you buy pictures or Lightroom is the opposite of a darkroom, this may be for you! Sorry, I’ve been watching too much of The Weakest Link!

What will we be doing? Well, we will be starting at the beginning and going on from there, at a pace that will reflect the skills/non-skills of the individual/audience. All and any questions will be welcome – no matter how stupid/silly/trivial you think they are; please don’t be afraid; both Lewis and I were at this stage once! Caveat – Lewis and I don’t know all the answers, but we will know most – I think! Anyway, it will hopefully be a starting point for members and will introduce you into the art of photo editing.

If you want, bring along some images (preferably RAW, but JPEG if not) on a USB and we can practice on them.

We will be at the Arts Centre from 7.15 until we all have had enough!

So, if you are thinking of coming along, please get in touch and let us know. If we get no response we won’t turn up. Email or ring PLEASE!

February 2nd: We have the judging of the ‘Humanity Cup Competition’ by Jim Cunningham ‘live’ in the Arts Centre.

PLUS – February 2nd – deadline for ‘Anything Goes Competition’, prints and digital images.

February 9th: We will have a presentation by Jeremy Malley-Smith on Scottish wildlife.

February 16th: As already mentioned instead of the J36 ‘Battle’ Robin has very kindly offered to do 2 presentations. One will be on The Falklands and the second will be on Nepal.

Afternoon All

Lewis and I hope you are all safe and well and is this Omicron on its way out? About time!

Many thanks to Rhona and Tim for publishing the ‘Creatures and Plants of the World Cup Competition’ results, judged by Harry Emmett, onto our Facebook page and our website page, respectively; so promptly and very much appreciated.

Competition Prints.

Competition rule number 6 states: ‘Prints must be mounted, include a title and the Club member’s Competition Number. The maximum mount size is 40cm x 50cm’.

In future as well as the title and the club members number, please write the words ‘Monochrome OR Colour’, as confirmation of its category. Now, it the vast majority of cases it will be obvious, but every now and again it perhaps isn’t quite as clear; many thanks.

This Wednesday 19th January: we have a workshop preceded by a showing of the prints and digital images chosen by Stan and his team (Anne and Mike) for the J36 ‘Battle’. As explained in previous newsletters, J36 Photography Society are unable to do ‘Battle’ with us. However, because Stan and team and members have taken the time and trouble to ‘put-things-together’ we have decided to still go ahead with the presentation. It will also be an opportunity for Stan to explain his choices!

The actual workshop is dedicated to members who wish to show their images (anonymously), with some very constructive and positive criticism that can often be very beneficial and help to improve any photographs.

Images can be sent to mike via his email (mikejenner17@gmail.com) or free, via Wetransfer. Also, any questions or help should be directed to Mike.

Deadline for images is Tuesday 18th January.

Zoom: For Stan’s presentation, we will endeavour to use zoom, but the actual prints may pose a problem. We will try our best! The digital images will be shown via screen share as will the critiques of members images.

January 26th: No meeting

February 2nd: We have the judging of the ‘Humanity Cup Competition’ by Jim Cunningham ‘live’ in the Arts Centre.

February 9th: We will have a presentation by Jeremy Malley-Smith on Scottish wildlife.

February 16th: As mentioned last week instead of the J36 ‘Battle’ Robin has very kindly offered to do 2 presentations. One will be on The Falklands and the second will be on Nepal. Lewis and I would like to take this opportunity to thank Robin for ‘stepping-into-the breach’ so to speak at short notice – thanks Robin!

Slide-Scanner.

Lewis and I are sure someone mentioned that they had a slide scanner that they were willing to lend out; unfortunately, perhaps due to the ageing process, neither of us can remember! If you are this member, would you please get in touch – Ta!

Message below from our email address:

Name: Graham Bracegirdle

Email: gb.bracegirdle@btinternet.com

Message: I have a Hanimex Rondette 35mm colour slide projector and screen that has not been used for some time. I no longer require it. If any member would like it, it is free to a good home. It was in full working order and comes with a carousel slide holder. Please contact me on Tel. No. 01995 605932 or at the above e/mail address.

If anyone is interested, please contact Graham direct.

PAGB: Between the open and nature competitions we put in 30 entries- a very good number. A long wait now for the results! (March).

On Wednesday evening we were entertained and educated by the local landscape photographer, Lee Metcalfe, all the way from Galgate. I thought Lee set a very high standard for the passionate way in which he searches out and records promising viewpoints, chases early morning and evening light, waits patiently for that light to cast a magic spell over the landscape and finally, records the event. 24/7 eh!

His professionalism, tenacity and unwillingness to settle for second best was reflected both in his highly informative presentation, which was thoughtfully constructed, the many high-quality images on show and the insights into both his camera craft and his photographic forays into very local wild places and wilder weather. I’m personally looking forward to buying the Fotovue book when it is released in the coming months. I think we are fortunate to have a local photographer willing to have the time, energy and expertise to help us, at the club, to enthuse and improve our knowledge and craft of photography.

Wednesday 12th January: we have the judging of the ‘Creatures and Plants of the World Cup Competition’ judged by Harry Emmett. Because of personal circumstances Harry will be judging from his home via Zoom. (Zoom link at the end of this newsletter). However, the Arts Centre will be open as usual for members to enjoy the competition starting at 7.30pm. When Harry is judging the prints, we will be able to see them via DPI copies so we won’t miss out. The DPI’s will be seen as normal. We hope you will be able to come along and ‘meet’ as near as normal as possible!

Wednesday 19th January: tonight, we have a workshop preceded by a showing of the prints and digital images chosen by Stan and his team (Anne and Mike) for the J36 ‘Battle’. Unfortunately, for various reasons, J36 Photography Society are unable to do ‘Battle’ with us. However, because Stan and team and members have taken the time and trouble to ‘put-things-together’ we have decided to still go ahead with the presentation. It will also be an opportunity for Stan to explain his choices!

The actual workshop is dedicated to members who wish to show their images (anonymously). The whole idea is for everyone to have an opportunity to show their work, away from competition judges, and for other members to suggest possible ways they could be improved.

Also, all images are subjective and don’t have to follow the ‘rules’, so any thoughts offered can be taken onboard or not – it’s up to you!

However, some very constructive and positive criticism can often be very beneficial and help to improve any photographs.

ALL images will be anonymous – so no names mentioned at all! The only person who will know who has sent in your images will be Mike, as someone has to organise the showing of the pictures.

Images can be sent to mike via his email (mikejenner17@gmail.com) or free, via Wetransfer. Also, any questions or help should be directed to Mike.

Don’t be frightened – have a go.

We do have some images submitted, but, of course, we would like some more – PLEASE!

Wednesday 16th February: because the J36 ‘Battle’ has been cancelled Robin, our excellent treasurer, will give a presentation on that evening. Further details to follow shortly.

Anything Goes Competition (any image on any theme): deadline date is Wednesday 2nd February. Please don’t forget that if you are submitting any prints and you use Garstang Fine Art shop, Sharon would like your prints in by Wednesday 19th January to ensure that your prints are mounted in good time.
