Tenby & District Camera Club launched it’s new face to face programme on the 1st September with an introduction to the future details of speakers, competitions and workshops. It was pleasing to the club to welcome several new members.
The first talk of the season was on the 8th September, when Allen Lloyd presented “Galaxies and Nebulae from my back garden” . Astro Photography is a very specialised subject and Allen tackled this field of photography with enthusiasm during the Covid Lockdowns and has been hooked ever since .
With his careful style of pitching the technical information at the right level, the audience was treated to a stunning array of photos showing colourful nebulae, galaxies and star trails He talked about and demonstrated the equipment required, using modern technology to control the exposures . Facts and figures about deep space fascinated , and gave many quite profound thoughts of our existence within the night skies. An excellent presenter .
On the 15th September Tenby Camera Club welcomed Nick Jenkins, ARPS, AWPF, for an evening of super landscape work . A Pembrokeshire born photographer but now based in South Wales, Nick is a member of Gwynfa Camera Club . He is an experienced speaker and judge on the Welsh circuit. He runs his business “Freespirit Images” specialising in Landscapes. With this accomplished sound base Nick began his “What’s it all about? “ talk .
Showing over 100 images taken in the UK , Nick illustrated the importance of considering composition, light, weather conditions, showing patience to clinch that view for posterity . He did this with a tour around our stunning country featuring Scottish lochs and mountains, Welsh rivers and reservoirs , English dales and lakes. Something for everyone !
Next week there is our annual Battle with 8 Welsh clubs competing for that top spot. An evening of excellent photography and a buffet too .
