Workshop Night – Tuesday 18th August 2015 – The Aesthetics of Photography
This month’s workshop promises to be a cracker. Earlier this year we had Emma Gilette come to judge one of competitions along and she agreed to come back and run a workshop for us. Well here it is, The Aesthetics of Photography and whilst all those other clubs are learning composition and other things, we are bringing our members the stuff that really makes a difference to your photography. Don’t miss this one, it will really make your images stand out from the rest.
Workshop Tuesday 21st July 2015 – The Art of Shooting People That You Don’t Know
This workshop presented by Glynn Lavender, owner of Creative Photo Workshop is well known both in Australia and the USA for his 30+ year involvement in the photo industry and brings his passion for teaching photography to every event.
Glynn’s goal is to cut through the technical jargon of photography and get to the heart of what’s important – capturing great images everywhere we go and every time we pick up our camera.
Macro Workshop Night – Special Thanks
Lenore and Jason, please accept our thanks for a great Macro Workshop. Having the Canon Collective there was a great move and I’m sure we all learned lots. Again, thank you both for your time and effort to create such an informative evening.
June Workshop Night – Macro Photography
The June workshop on Tuesday 16th June is going to be a cracker. Jason and Lenore are hosting the Macro Photography Night with a special guest from Canon Australia, Erin Kostopulos. As well as talking to us, Erin will also be bringing along some Canon macro lenses and extension tubes for you to try. Come along and you are guaranteed to learn something, if not you can have a free cup of coffee, a biscuit and the pleasure of the other members company to make up for it.
Guests are more than welcome, please introduce yourself to any committee member when you arrive, we have coloured bands on our name badges.

Fantastic 4-Club Results – April 2015
After a nail biting wait the 4-Club judging night finally arrived at Eastern Suburbs new club rooms at Ringwood North. The night was quieter than usual with the failure of Berwick to submit any images and subsequently none of their members attending. It was also a little disappointing to see only 6 Waverley members and 2 partners representing our club. However, after what was a slightly shaky start with their new projector and it being only their third meeting at the room, we got into what was to turn out to be a great night for Waverley. The mono prints were the first to receive the judges treatment followed closely by colour prints and the EDI. Before I publish the full results, I would like to congratulate several people on their results, please note that the scores are out of 15, as follows:
