Club Meeting – Agenda 13th December 2011

Club Calendar 2012
John and Desmond will present the club’s calendar for 2012 to members at this month’s meeting. The calendar contains predetermined dates for important events such as club meetings, sunrise/sunset times and moon phase. There are also monthly photography tips to clarify aspects of photographic terminology and technique. Calendars cost €8.00 each or 3 for €22.00 and are only available through the club.

Motivation
The Motivation theme this month is DOCUMENTARY Photography. Joe will present this month’s submissions that were judged by photojournalist, Brian Farrell. View members images HERE.

As we begin a new club year, we are redefining the categories for Advanced, Intermediate and Beginners. The committee have prepared a document that outlines the distinctions between each category and will be presenting it to members after Joe's presentation. Categories Document available HERE.
The redefined Motivation categories will take effect from January 2012. Existing and new members should read the document and indicate their category on renewing their membership for 2012.

Group Sessions
Rather than a general presentation, at this month’s meeting there will be an extended period given over to Group sessions.
Tony will take the Advanced group and reintroduce members to using the club’s studio lights. These have recently been repaired and it is envisaged that advanced members become familiar with using them. The club is currently in the process of acquiring a set of studio backdrops and hanging frame that will be available for loan in the new year.
Joe will take the Intermediate group and Paraic will address some issues relating to the basics to image processing for Beginner members.
The groups will also determine dates for group specific photo shoots over the Christmas period if desirable.

The club meeting takes place on Tuesday 13th December in St. Joseph’s Resource Centre, Boyle at 8pm.
New members are always welcome. We look forward to seeing you all.
