As you will know from the club programme, in February (Tuesday 20th) Cliff is organising a practical studio shoot. This will be a great opportunity to bring your cameras and take portraits, from face to full height shoots. The plan is to build three separate sets in the school hall, each with its own lighting. There will be one or more models at each set. You can move between sets, connect your camera to the lights and conduct your own shoot.
Prior to this evening I am offering to run a preliminary studio workshop for any member interested in gaining some experience of a studio shoot before this event.
This preliminary workshop will be on Thursday 8th February at Cople Village Hall, 7pm to 9.40pm.
The evening is open to any member who wishes to learn or refresh the basics of flash photography using both flashguns (AKA speedlights) and studio lights.
The BCC has been offered exhibit space on the 1st floor of the Bromham Mill (Bridge End, Bromham, Bedford MK43 8LP). We have accepted their offer, and are looking forward to showing our efforts to the local community! But there will be work involved, so anyone wishing to exhibit will also be required to provide helping hands throughout the process. No help, no image(s).
Here are the particulars;
We have had one report that a member was unable to send their PDIs to the normal mail box. Instead they received a “bounce” message.
When you send in your images (for a PDI or Print competition) please do check you get back the automatic “received” confirmation. If you get a bounce or do not see the confirmation after 60 minutes please let me know the details
