Night shoot at Station Pier this Friday
by Pete Davies on Feb.17, 2010, under Club outings
Friday 19th is the next night shoot.
The destination is Beacon Cove/Station Pier. Meet at the beacon monument on the beach (not the beacon itself which is further inland) at 7:30. We’ll grab a bite to eat and then when the sun starts to set we’ll go a snapping.
It’s a fantastic location with loads of potential so I hope to see you there.
Workshop tonight with David Williams
by Pete Davies on Feb.16, 2010, under Workshops
Tonight’s workshop sees the very welcome return of David Williams.
David will be demonstrating how to get the most out a portrait shoot no matter where you are or what equipment you have at hand. This will be a great night to come along and get your portrait done by one of the other members under the tutelage of a master photographer.
You will need to bring a couple of things: your good self; your camera and some sort of prop that says something about you. It could be another hobby you have or an object you are particularly fond of. Use your imagination.
Because we want to maximise our exposure and make as much use of whatever light we have, THE EVENING WILL BEGIN AT 7PM SHARP.
Second Portrait & Flash Group meeting
by Stephen Edmonds on Feb.12, 2010, under Portrait & Flash Photography
As Teddy will be away for this month’s Flash Portrait Group meeting he has asked Warren to take the class in his absence. What he would like to cover in this meeting is the following:
- A quick recap of the information presented by David Gilliver in the last meeting. There must be lots of questions now that you have had a few weeks to digest what he had to say.
- A run down on what equipment you will need to get you started with OFF-camera flash on a budget.
- Why OFF camera flash is so useful. Warren will bring some images in so we can dissect them and try to understand how the light has been used to good effect.
- Get some feedback from the group as to what you want to get out of future sessions. These can then be passed on to Teddy so he can tailor future classes accordingly.
It should be an informative night with lots of interactive discussion.
Royal Botanic Gardens in Cranbourne this Sunday
by Pete Davies on Feb.01, 2010, under Club outings
Hi All,
This Sunday will see WCC venture out for it’s 4th outing for the year so far, the second in the Sunday series.
This time around it’s the Royal Botanic Gardens in Cranbourne. The forecast at this stage is for a sunny 28 degrees which should be just perfect. The gardens open at 9am but I propose that we meet at the visitor centre at a slightly more respectable 10am. The loose plan is to wander around for a couple of hours and then meet back at the visitor’s centre at 12:30 for some lunch.
The following entry fees apply for the Australian Garden:
Adults: $9.80 AUD
Concession: $8.35 AUD
Children under 16 free.
Entry to the bushland at Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne is free.
The bushland will be closed if it is a Total Fire Ban day.
See you there,
Pete
Approximately a 45 minute drive from Mount Waverley:
First of our monthly comps for 2010
by Pete Davies on Feb.01, 2010, under Monthly competitions
Tomorrow night is the first of our monthly comps for 2010 and don’t forget that the competition nights are now held in the Craft Room at the Mt Waverley Community Centre. It’s a hop, skip and a jump from Wadham House on the corner of Miller Cres and Stephensons Road.
Please don’t park in the Wadham House car park as you would normally do as we are not renting Wadham House on the night. There is plenty of parking at the community centre.
This will be the deadline for the March comp so bring along your prints on the night. Digital copies of the prints and the EDI entries must be bought along on disk or emailed by this date also.
Also stay tuned for more information about the outing to Cranbourne Botanical Gardens on Sunday the 7th of Feb.
