The first Creative Group meeting for this year is Tuesday 8th April 2025 at 7.30 pm via zoom. All members are welcome and no prior experience is necessary. Please send me any creative images you would like to share with the group or seek feedback on.
In the first meeting we will explore what Creative Photography is (hint: there are no limits) and seek inspiration from our own club members’ images.
In addition we will also explore many fantastic examples of creative images from internationally renowned local artists featured in our last promotion. Naturally we will cover the main tools and techniques used by creative photographers in and out of the camera.
This year the set subject of our annual creative competition with Geelong Camera Club is Animals, please start thinking about ideas for your own image and any suggestions you have to share with othergroup members.
Special Announcement: At the first meeting I will announce details of the new Creative Photography Image of the Year Award.
If you have any queries about the group, suggestions and ideas please send me an email.

It’s time to get the Portfolio group back and running. I hope you are all both energised and inspired by the work created by our members last year, and that some of you will join in this year.
Just to set the scene:
Our first meeting will be on Tuesday 18th March, from 7.30 in the main room at Mount Waverley Community Centre (where we have all of our usual meetings).
For those of you that created a portfolio in 2024, please bring this along to share and discuss. Think about what you learnt, what worked, what was difficult, and what you might have done differently. We will also spend a little time discussing ideas you might have for 2025.
Everyone is welcome to join in.
Daryl Lynch (one of our members) recently ran an interesting and informative zoom workshop, teaching us about different styles of fireworks photography; the details of preparation and things which need to be considered as well as settings to use.
He followed this with a hands-on session observing and photographing the Moomba fireworks from a vantage point he had decided upon based on launch sites, wind and crowds. It was a great learning experience and time with other members. We captured some amazing images on that night and also on the following nights.
More images from our members can be found in our outing gallery.
