Boyle Camera Club Members square-up to the vista views on Achill during the recent weekend photo shoot.
Photographers from Boyle Camera Club took up residence on Achill Island, Co. Mayo for what will hopefully become an annual Summer Weekend Photo Shoot. The event was attended by 28 club members, most arriving on the Island on Friday night to prepare for the 4am sunrise shoot on Saturday morning. Achill enjoyed a weekend of glorious sunny weather while most of the country experienced heavy cloud cover, icy winds and rain.
Dawn Patrol - Doogort Beach, Achill Island.
18 photographers took to the beach at Doogort at dawn in time to catch the sun breaking over the horizon at 5.12am. A perfect start to the day which saw members travel to various stunning and dramatic photographic locations on the island. Day 1. ended with a fine feast for the tired and hungry photographers, hosted by Chris, Veronica and Ger at Doogort and the contingent finished with a night-cap in Lynott's bar. The sun continued to shine on Sunday which saw the club tour the Atlantic Drive before heading home.
It was unanimously agreed the the event was a great success, thanks in no small part to the great efforts and organisation skills of club treasurer, Chris O'Connor. Plans are already underway for the next weekend trip!
Next Meeting of Boyle Camera Club will take place this Wednesday, 10th June 2009 in The Moving Stairs, Boyle at 8pm.
