Presentations
We aim to provide our members with exposure to a wide variety of interesting guest speakers who are experts in their particular field of photography and who are willing to share their knowledge and experience.
Practical Sessions
We hold several sessions throughout the year where members, especially beginners, can improve their photographic skills by drawing on the knowledge of more advanced members with ‘hands-on’ experience of photographic techniques. Amongst other things this includes topics such as photographic studio set-up, macro photography and image enhancement workshops.
Members’ Evenings
Members’ Evenings, as the name suggests, are when club members take centre stage and present some of their work, such as Audio-Visual displays of their photographs. These evenings have proved to be popular, based on attendance and feedback, and consequently they now form a regular part of the club’s syllabus.
Summer Activities
The summer activities are very much “hands on” offering members the opportunity to work together to develop their photography skills. These meetings are informal and are not part of the planned syllabus however they do prove very popular with members offering ideas as to where to go. This is open to all, and participating members typically meet at Crofthead on a Monday night and from there go out and about in the local area with their cameras. There is normally a day trip to the Edinburgh Festival which is usually well attended.
