While competition for the Photo Club’s 2007 competition ended in September, the 2008 competition has only just begun.

On Monday 5th November, the Photo Club’s annual awards night was held in the Heritage room at the St George Leagues Club, with all the best images of 2007 competitions on display. These included colour and monochrome prints, slides and digital images.

St George Photographic Society

Although our competition nights are very popular, our 2008 program will include many activities for beginners and for those who would like to learn more about taking photos, editing photos and presenting photos. There will be the usual field trips – which are commonly popular for the newer members and various presentations from more experienced photographers.

We will have a New Members Practical night in our first club gathering for 2008 and the various workshops will also be of great benefit to those who are interested in learning the art of photography.

So why not take the step of joining in on our activities?

All of our current members will make you feel more than welcome.

Details of our photo club are available online at www.stgphoto.org.au
or through Club President Christine Nelson on 0401 587 197 and Secretary Leisa Vasil on 02 9919 8951.

Visit www.stgphoto.org.au to view our annual program, image gallery, competition rules and results, contact details and much more.

Many of our members have just returned from a photographic safari through outback Australia. While the route was chosen for its dramatic photographic opportunities, the fellowship enjoyed with people of similar interest proved to be of equal value.

The trip included Streaky Bay, Ceduna, Penong, Eucla, Googs Track (4WD), Arakoringa and Coober Pedy. Members captured thousands of images on both digital and film cameras. Those who could not enjoy the tour will see the images on future evenings at the club.

Plans are being finalised for future trips including a snow trip to Adaminaby in August and a wild life adventure to  the Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo in September.

The Photographic Society continues to grow with all competitions expanding. Colour and mono prints, slides and projected digital images have attracted increased participation of newer members. A larger floor area has been provided to allow for the increased display, many thanks to St George Leagues Club.

Our program continues with distinguished speakers on the technical and aesthetic elements of the photographic process. Colour and monochrome printing, close up and nature photography, people and portraiture, training in digital image manipulation and presentation, and individual member portfolio displays – all contribute to a balanced program for members with varying experience.

If your interest in photography is growing, then a visit to our meetings will inspire you. We assemble most Thursday evenings and enjoy meeting and greeting new visitors. Phone President Michelle Hinde on 9570 1077 or Secretary Leisa Vasil on 9919 8951 during business hours for further information.
