News Update...

Next Meeting
Our July monthly meeting (as ever, 2nd Tuesday - ie, July 13th) will be at an earlier time (7.30pm) and at a different venue (Lough Key Forest Park). We have planned to have an informal outdoor event this time, so bring your camera and a picnic and we'll see what happens! No slideshows this month – we'll save them for a later date.
Best Shot
An exhibition of images by members of our Club takes place in Boyle Library at the end of July during Boyle Arts Festival. Thirty two members are taking part: all exhibitors are asked to check their e-mails for details of the entrance fee and sitting commitments. This year, proceeds from the sale of pictures will go to the West of Ireland Heart Foundation, Croί. (www.croi.ie)
Moment in Time
If you took a picture at 4pm on June 12th for our challenge, please send it in, in the usual way – make sure you identify it as different from the Motivations and other photo-shoots! There's still time to send in your Aran Islands pictures, too. We will have a social evening in September to show the results of our lovely weekend away. More details nearer the time…
Motivation
The deadline for camera phone pictures is Tuesday next, July 6th. Send them in to info@boylecameraclub.com in the usual way – properly re-sized and labelled with your membership number, your category and a title for the image.
PhotoIreland
Of interest to photographers everywhere is the PhotoIreland Festival 2010 which takes place in Dublin from July 1st until 11th. Part of the festival is 'The Birth of Motion and Colour Photography', an exhibition of rare original photos by Eadweard Muybridge and the Lumiere Brothers from 1887 and 1907-11. The display is in Mondrian's Room, St Stephen's Green, Dublin 2. More info on www.photoireland.org.
