NPF Weekend
Fellow Photographers.
You are invited to the Northern Photographic Federation 2024 Convention, which is being held on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 July 2024 at the Kurri Kurri Bowling Club.
There will be print and digital exhibitions, trade exhibitions, workshops, presentations, speakers and educators, models to photograph plus an opportunity to win a complete photography studio (see attached for details). If you’re interested, register here for the Studio Shoot: https://npf.myphotoclub.com.au/pre-entry-checks/.... It’s a capped event so, get in quick!
The full program can be viewed at https://npf.myphotoclub.com.au/draft-program-released/ .
It’s $45 for the two days. There’s no discount for a one-day entry. Entry can be paid via PayPal at https://npf.myphotoclub.com.au/pre-entry-checks/... or at the door using EFTPOS or cash.
NOTE: If you entered images into the NPF competition, the fee covers physical entry for the weekend, therefore, don’t pay again!

22nd July – Sensor Cleaning Tutorial
It’s nearly time to clean your sensors. I hear that the cleaning kits are being delivered quickly so there is still time to order yours in time for the night.
Come along and bring all your camera bodies and get rid of those pesky dust bunnies.
Have your cameras prepared and ready for the NPF the following weekend, in case you win the David Oliver natural light portrait photo workshop.
Here’s the link to the cleaning kit information..

FEES and TEA AND COFFEE
Thank you to those who have paid their fees and a reminder to those who have yet to pay. The fee this year is $50.
Also, if you wish to pay your tea and coffee up front to avoid having to find that pesky $2 coin at the meeting, you can add $40 to your payment.
Neville and I have opted to do that this year. So much easier for us and less of a hassle for Dale when we have to pay the club for our tea and coffee.
