Background
The Photo Adventures
Camera Club began meeting in May of 2003. The group was formed by
photographers primarily interested in taking field trips and sharing
their work. Members include beginners wanting to learn as well as
very experienced photographers willing to share information, techniques
and critiques.
The club format, which is
still evolving, is informal. Members sit around a table and are
all given an opportunity to show their latest work, ask questions, show
their equipment, discuss techniques, propose field trips, and tell
photography-related stories. The second meeting of the month is
devoted to slide shows on the topic for that month.
The Club strives to hold a
field trip every month and several impromptu trips usually result from
interaction among members. Members learn from one another, which
is one of the Club's objectives.
Our Club is interested in
photography in all its forms, including slides, prints, and digital
images. Our members produce work from traditional wet darkrooms as
well as computers. There are even a few view camera owners among
the membership. Interest in subject matter varies widely and one
never knows what they'll see at a meeting.
