Waverley Camera Club

A short note to thank all those members who attended our ’4 Club’ event last night, especially our new members who attended. It was great to see you roll up and mix so freely with members from each participating club.

Congratulations to each of the category winners for the night.

EDI Projected Images

Though not as successful as we may have wanted, our congratulations go to all WCC members whose images were judged on the night.

A special thanks go to our own Pete Myers for organising the use of the AIPP meeting room and to our judge for the night, Randal Armstrong, whose effort and time taken to score the images in the first instance and then give on the night such valuable and verbal critique on each image was appreciated by all who attended.

A big thank you for those members who helped organise this 4 Club event.and ensured a smooth running on the night. I’m sure all club members join with me in sincerly thanking you for your valuable time and efforts.

Finally, thankyou for bringing a plate, the supper break rounded the night off nicely.

Best regards,
Ian
President

As you are now probably aware you have given me the honour of being your President for the next 12 months. Filling Pete Davies shoes will be no easy task but with your support and help we can sure give it a big try.

As you may remember WCC is hosting the 4 Club Competition this coming Tuesday 25 October. Your committee members are doing all the hard yards in organising the night, setting up the displays organising the audio/video etc. All we need now is for our members to come along and support their efforts and those members whose prints are to be put in front of the judge.

We do need an indication of the numbers likely to come so I ask that each of you to give us 30 seconds and please respond and let us know if you are coming along or are unlikely to attend. Given you are coming can I remind you to please bring a plate of finger food for afters.

The event will be hosted at:

The Australian Institute of Prosfessional Photography(AIPP)

205A Middleborough Road

Box Hill

7:30 pm for 8:00pm start.

Please remember this is your club

Regards Ian Hansen

The October competition marked the last of our monthly competitions for the year. In the past we would have a November competition, but as the judging night was Melbourne Cup Day it was more difficult to find a judge and attendance was typically low. Coupled with us hosting the 4 Club competition at the end of October, the November competition was removed from the schedule.

Now, this does not mean that club members can sit idle, those that submitted an entry during the year can enter the end of year competition with three images in each of:

• Colour printed
• Monochrome printed
• Open EDI

The entry must have been entered into a 2011 monthly competition and in the same format. A print must have been previously entered as a print, and an EDI must have been previously entered as an EDI. An EDI cannot be printed and entered as a print, or vice versa.

Technically these entries are due on Tuesday 1 November 2011, but as we are not having a meeting that night, please bring your prints along to the 4 Club night on Tuesday 25 October. Email through the name and month that your EDI entries were entered previously. If you cannot bring your prints to the 4 Club night, then let me know via the competition email address.

The end of year judging night is Tuesday December 6 and as always we ask that you bring your partners/loved ones and a small plate of food.

Also, don’t forget about the President’s Trophy. The topic this year is “End of the line” and you can submit three EDI entries directly to Pete by Friday 2 December 2011.
