Our 3rd Open Competition

Again, we had lots of entries for our third and final competition of the series. The judge was local architectural photographer, Colin McLean LRPS, who provided some insightful comments. 

Our next meeting will be an evening photo hunt in Peebles on Wednesday 6th May. Meet at Greenside Car Park (behind Cocoa Blacks) at 7:30pm.

Who are we?

We’re a friendly group of people who enjoy taking photographs and getting together in a relaxed informal environment.

What do we do?

Each season we offer smartphone and camera users alike a programme of expert talks, practical sessions, talks by members, and for those interested the opportunity to take part in competitions.

Why do we do it?

We just love taking photos whether of something beautiful in the natural world, special moments with family and friends, memorable scenery, or anything that appeals to us. Being a club member helps us learn how to make our photos the best they can be through greater technical knowledge and developing a creative eye.

Why should I join?

The club’s varied programme aims to inspire, educate and inform and is for everyone who has ever looked at a photo they have taken and wished that it had turned out better.

The club also has privileged access to the best spots to take photos of community events like the Beltane and weekly sports fixtures.

Is it expensive to join?

We don’t think so! The cost of £3.00 per session is less than the cost of a coffee in a high-street cafe and includes tea/coffee and biscuits! We charge a single fee to cover all the season’s meetings at the start of the season.

Do I need an expensive camera?

Definitely not. Club activities are enjoyable and relevant whether you use a smartphone for all your photography (which is now most people) or are an enthusiastic user of the latest camera technology.

Two similar men by Ximena McIntosh

The Story Behind The Photo

I was going through my photos and thought it was funny to have two similar men with weight on their shoulders. One of them is in Sintra, Portugal; the other in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
