The 'Typology' Challenge

We would like to thank everyone who attended last nights meeting, especially all the new people who sampled the club for the first time. We would also like to thank John Mee for his excellent presentation on the night.

We briefly discussed the members projects which are ongoing - 'The Alphabet Challenge' and 'Typology Challenge' and we mentioned that we would post some information regarding the challenges on the website. 

We have set the December meeting as a deadline to complete The Alphabet Challenge' and 'Typology Challenge', with a view to showing the finished work at the December meeting. So its not too late to get involved and take part. Both challenges are an excellent way of training your eye to see photos all around you and to get thinking about taking photos.

The following are some useful links for Typology Challenge (we will discuss the Alphabet Challenge separately).

This article will give you an overview of Photographic Typologies. 
Also, check out a previous post on the website here.
Tony Murphy put a video together, demonstrating how to put your Typology together here. You will find the templates Tony uses here.

We would encourage you to take part in the challenge. Hopefully you find this post helpful - If you have any questions, just ask a member for help or contact us via email (boylecameraclubinfo@gmail.com).

The following are examples of Typologies put together by members previously.

Brian Munnelly - Post Offices in Sligo

Andy Rimmer - Tulsk Ruins  
Marty Cooke - Wild Roses
