Worldwidephotowalk

I have signed up to go on this walk on the 24th July. This is the same leader as last year and I found it interesting, I might be biased as my drain cover picture won me the latest Scott Kelby’s book.

[See NEWS entries for 4th August 2009 to see Richard's winning image]

I think it is worth putting it on the web site as other SCC members may like to join the walk

Romsey Firestation visit; 1st June

Southampton Camera Club have arranged for the firemen in Romsey to put on a special hour and a half display specifically for photographers at one of the industrial estates in Romsey on Tuesday 1st June 2010 at 7.30pm.

We hope some of your members would be interested in joining us, as there needs to be a good number there to make it worthwhile - having run these events before the firemen guarantee everyone will get great photos from behind the safety cordon

The cost is a donation of £10 per head to the collection for the two fireman who lost their lives in Southampton earlier this year, you can book your place with either Terri or myself, please contact us as soon as possible if you are interested.

No commercial photography is allowed, there is car parking - but car sharing is advisable, if you want to use a tripod please be respectful to other photographers who also want good photos. There are several local pubs if everyone wants to meet up for a chat afterwards.

Kindest regards,

Chris & Terri Neill-Griffin

If you run photo workshops or photo holidays then e-news could work very well for you - giving direct access to your prospective customers! If you know of anyone who might like to advertise please ask them to e-mail me. Please don't just send me names and numbers as I'm not into "cold calling".

Roll of Honour for Rose

Last night Lynn Lambeth our Southern Federation President graced us with her presence together with her husband Roy.  Their reason for coming was to present Rose Snape with a Roll of Honour. This presentation was to honour Rose's work within our camera club for over 40 years and especially for her work on the Committee since 1964! 

See the Archives for more evidence.

Well done Rose and congratulations.
