Boyle Town & More are hosting an EXTRAVAGANZA WEEKEND during this October Bank Holiday, Friday 28th - Sunday 30th.
A schedule packed with events has been prepared to celebrate all that is good about Boyle, it's businesses, amenities and it's people. Boyle Camera Club will be represented by an Exhibition of Photographs in the main gallery at King House (open to the public on Friday and Saturday only).
The organisers have asked Boyle Camera Club if it's members would take photos to record the various events over the three days. With a view to putting together a coordinated effort, we invite members to express their interest in attending and recording some of the events on the schedule, to sign-up via the CLUB FORUM.
This will be an excellent opportunity for ALL to practice their 'Street Photography' and 'Photojournalistic' skills. We hope to be able to put a collection of images together on behalf of Boyle Camera Club to present to the event organisers.
Add your name to the thread in the club forum and we will subsequently allot events to those interested in taking part. Updates will follow during the week.
Full Programme of events HERE.

I'm surprised the Boyle Camera Club committee has not pursed the club's former policy of purchasing stock items for the use of members.
An important one would be a screen calibrator - they are not expensive!
• One member might learn how to use it and perform the quick calibration procedure for members laptops before meetings, during coffee break or indeed after meetings. Arrangements could be made for members home-based desktop machines and their related monitors. This would ensure that all members would be able to view their images from the same visual perspective.
• BCC appears to be in a healthy financial state. What is the point in having a larger than necessary bank balance? There are a number of other items the club might purchase - for instance, bulk software licences, (photo editors, slideshow and screen capture apps for a potential YouTube account and Facebook fan page) and other areas in which the club would serve the interests of an increasing number of ex-members, and those who have dropped away over the years.
• Has the club a plan to offer presentations on the button now a feature on practically every new camera - the "record video" button??!!
I look forward to hearing plans the new, larger committee of BCC might have for expanding the excellent and creative possibility it offers! Perhaps you will consider the above thoughts and suggestions and bring them to a committee meeting with my compliments!
