Conservation Management Network’s 2015 Calendar Photo Competition

Subject: Chough-Chat

Hi Everyone,

Just a reminder that the Conservation Management Network’s 2015 Calendar photo comp is open, with the closing date by the end of August, 2014.

Grab the camera, and take photos of animals, birds, insects, plants or natural places in your part of the world, and you could find your picture featured in the 2015 calendar.  This year, pictures of turtles, frogs, lizards, snakes and bats are highly sought after.

The prize?  Well, apart from the honour and glory of featuring in this calendar which is distributed to 5000 businesses and households throughout the region, you will win a gift card and an invitation for you and a guest to a lunch with other calendar winners and the CMN committee members.

Emailing your photos is preferable.  Make sure your photos are between 2-10MB, and please include a subject line (of what the photo is of) in the email.

Cheers for now,

Janice.

Apologies: Judy Hoffmann, Kim Wyllie, Mary White

Guest Presenter : Bert Hovelling

Alan Synnott chaired the meeting and welcomed Bert and his friend Margaret.

Capture an Idea photos “ Empty” were judged first by the members and then Open Judged by Bert.

Homework was viewed. It was encouraging to see so many entrants. Alan Cole stated that in view of the quality of the submissions, he doubted that he could add anything through his talk in October on “Flowers”.

To obtain best reproduction of submissions, it is important that photos are sent as an attachment to an email, NOT embedded in the email itself.

Bert gave a short PowerPoint on Layers, followed by 2 audio visual instruction presentations extracted from photographic magazines. This complete presentation has been copied to the club’s computer and can be made available to members.

Homework will be based on using our new skills and will be circulated soon.

Capture an Idea for next month –WHITE

There will be committee meetings for the Show and general club coming up soon, probably evening in the RSl. Dates to be advised.

Meeting closed 9.45pm

Meteor Shower Photography. Any Interest?

Hi YCC Members

Found this article in my mail today so thought that someone else in the club might be interested. It would be a 01:00 to 05:00  time slot it appears for the best images, but I would be game if I can get company. Maybe the December event rather than the October one... Too cold!!

Read the article here Meteor Shower and let me know.
