Waverley Camera Club

Dear Photographer

A unique opportunity to be involved in something new and exciting for Millicent and surrounds, in fact for all photographers amateur or professional, there is a space for you.

In January 2010 Millicent will host the first ever Rotary Photographic Art Exhibition dedicated solely to photography. The event, to be run by the Rotary Club of Millicent will be the largest photography event of its kind in South Australia and possibly Australia. With Prize money of $5,500 and 4 categories plus the Mayoral Award for the most outstanding photograph, the exhibition is being held over the busy January period, and with this there is an opportunity for you to participate and sell your works.

With this in mind I invite you/your members to participate in this inaugural photographic art show.

We anticipate that over 400-framed photographs from across Australia will be received for display within the Millicent Civic and Arts Centre for a period of 8 days from January 8th through to January 15th 2010. It is expected that locals, domestic visitors and a large contingent of tourists will be drawn to the event from right across the region during this peak tourism holiday period.

On behalf of the Rotary Club of Millicent we invite you to participate in this exciting initiative.

Thank you for taking the time to consider exhibiting in this Art Show, which we hope will be the first of an annual growing event.

Please find attached the Entry Form and Conditions of Entry.

For further information please email myself at anjochdy@internode.on.net

Yours sincerely

John Chalmers
President
Rotary Club of Millicent

This is taken from an email I received from Kodak regarding the Ballarat International Foto Biennale.

I’m very pleased to let you know about an event Kodak and ANZ are running as part of the Ballarat International Foto Biennale. We are running an event called “Capture Ballarat” – sort of like a “great race” around Ballarat, but instead of completing feats at each checkpoint, you are required to take photos at each of the 7 photo points. These 7 photos will be judged, and the winners awarded some fantastic prizes.

“Capture Ballarat” takes place on Sunday 13th September – please see below for more information, or go to the website : http://www.ballaratfoto.org/ballaratfoto.org/kodak_anz_challenge.html

If you would like to know more about the entire Ballarat International Foto Biennale event, please go to their website http://www.blogger.com/www.ballaratfoto.org – the Biennale is the biggest photographic event in the southern hemisphere, expecting 40,000+ people to attend over the month 4th September – 4th October. We look forward to seeing you there.

The Yea Autumn Photo Competition was postponed this year because of the bushfires. It is now being held as a Spring competition.

It would be especially good if our members could give support to the Yea Camera Club this year. This is an ideal opportunity for some of the beginners to enter a competition, the entry form was attached to the email sent out by the Secretary. If you require this form again, please post a comment at the bottom of this article or email me at the editors email address Here
