About-Us

The 2nd Monday of the month is our competition night.

  • Our Competition Program is available from our website.
  • There are 3 grades, Advanced, A and Open. Open Grade is usually for beginner photographers and for those members who just enjoy taking photographs without doing extensive editing.
  • We have photos presented both in print form as well as Digital (EDI) option. (EDI – Electronic Data Images)
  • Both Digital and Print contests require you to enter online on this website and include a digital copy of each entry. This will be displayed in an image gallery on the website
  •  All photographs are displayed and critiqued by the judge on the night. Most judges provide very beneficial feedback, from which we all learn
  • At the end of the year we run our “Photo of the Year”competition (POTY). The photos entered in this competition must be photographs that have been entered in competitions throughout the year.

The 4th Monday of the month is our tutorial night.

  • We have had many and varied tutorials and continue to do so every month.
  • Suggestions from members as to what tutorials they would like to have are very welcome.

The 1st Monday of the Month is Special Interests group night

  • This is not for competition but to allow members to explore their own photography journey.

Preparing Competition Images – You be the Judge
If you are interested in participating in photography competitions and obtaining honours nationally and internationally, then you may benefit from this presentation.

Successful images always create a connection with the viewer. Images that create connection have certain characteristics that range from technical qualities, lighting and presentation, good composition, creativity, narrative and most importantly, impact.  Nilmini has not only obtained national and international honours through competition, she has also engaged in the Photographic Society of America’s Portfolio Distinction Program, obtaining her Silver. She will share some of her strategies, her struggles and how learning post processing took her photography to the next level.
