Unfortunately this clashes with our portrait and flash photography group, but if you are not going along to that, please come along to the judging night to represent the club, and possibly learn a thing or two from the judge’s comments.

The judging of the Pakenham National is this Saturday. We are still waiting to hear if observers are permitted or not. If they are, details will be posted in the next day or so. Let Pete know if you are interested.

Finally, this Sunday is the first of August which means it is also time for our monthly Sunday outing. As the exhibition for the VIGEX 2010 Salon also opens on that day we have decided to head down to Geelong for the exhibition (at the Geelong Art Gallery, Little Malop Street, Geelong). We will meet at the gallery at 11am, have lunch somewhere around 1pm, then a photo shoot somewhere after lunch.

At the workshop this Tuesday we will be having another sound triggered flash workshop.

This was awesome fun last time and those that were there will know what sort of things to bring.

For those who weren’t: bring your camera and a tripod. Last time around we were setting off party poppers, smashing light globes and bursting balloons.

If you can think of anything else which happens at high speed and will set off a sound triggered flash please bring them along.

The Pakenham Camera Club is holding their 6th National Photographic Exhibition that is open to all residents of Australia.

Last year a few club members entered images to good result. If you are interested in entering images this year then be aware that entries close on Friday 16 July, a little over two weeks away.

Judging of the entires occurs on 31 July, with the exhibition on the weekend of 11-12 September. Like the recent Warragul National, we will be planning an outing for a nearby location on one of those days.

This Sunday 4 July is an outing to the wonderful Cloudehill Nursery and Gardens in The Dandenongs.

Meet there at 10am. It’s not mentioned on the website but we have been told that there is an entrance fee of $5. It may just be a gold coin donation, so be prepared.

There’s also a restaurant there which may be open for lunch – if you are interested in having lunch at the restaurant please let Pete know ASAP.
