The next meeting of Caloundra Camera Group will be held on November 27 and will be a share night.
This will be the last meeting of the year for CCG and we do hope to see as many members as possible in attendance because the theme for the meeting will be 'The Program For 2020', PLUS we will also have a couple of surprise guest speakers who will impart some great photography tips to you. With set subjects for 2020 such as, Leading Lines, ICM and Negative Space being on the program, some members may have questions about just what is required. So, various members will be talking and visually demonstrating what the definitions mean and how you can go about achieving winning images in 2020. Our meeting will open at 7.15 pm and the meeting will then commence at 7.30 pm. |
Our last comp night
Our chosen judge for the night was Jenny Graff, who because of illness was unable to attend the meeting, although she had judged the DPI's earlier in the week. So Ralph Brown stepped in at the last minute to judge the prints for us, so a big thank you Ralph from all of us.

'An Artist at Work' by Annette Wood took out the top spot in the A Grade Set Subject DPI section.
Well done Annette.
Congratulations also to Mike West for his image 'Fire Hazard' which gained the 9 points in the All Grades Art Photography Print section.
