Club members met again on February 15 for the second meeting of 2017.
They were pleased to welcome Alison Aitken as a new member and Nereley Hunt as a visitor. They were also pleased to welcome a visitor from the Frankston Club near Melbourne.

The judge for the evening was Heath Barkley, who critiqued each member’s photographs. Thanks go to Heath for his comprehensive, constructive points on composition, colour and lighting etc.
The results of the competition were as follows:
Division A – Set subject
Gold award - Josh Whitworth. (photo attached)

The website can be accessed at www.naroomacameraclub.org and Peter has put in a tremendous amount of work and thanks go to him for all his efforts and involvement. .
The next club meeting will be on Wednesday, March 1. It will be a technical training evening aimed at beginners and less experienced members to teach them how to use the various controls on their cameras.
The club will be holding its annual exhibition of members’ photographs in the Montague Room at Club Narooma over the Easter weekend. Publicity material with further details will be distributed in the near future.
Visitors are always welcome so why not come along and see if the program can offer you something of interest. If you like them you can join the club; if you don’t you can simply walk away with no obligation.
