POST ABOUT OUR ICM COMPETITION NOW POSTED ON ICMPhotoMag Facebook
Christopher Weeks mentioned that he would publish some of our results within the ICMPhotoMag community. So it was quite exciting to find this post on their Facebook page this morning. Hopefully most of you have Facebook and will be able to access it (not sure if you can get access without Facebook, but give it a go).
Regards

Photo Rally to Balmain
Great day was had by those attending the Photo Rally to Balmain.
Apart from a mix up with which wharf to meet at, there are three wharf’s in the area, so much to see in this area and all agree that additional visits will be necessary. Great views of the city from the Balmain East wharf area and spectacular architecture and history in the area. Don’t forget that you have a month to visit and take photo’s for the Photo Rally and my Photo Club comps

Canyoning Photography
Pennant Hills Club members are invited to an inspiring presentation on Canyoning Photography presented by the Ryde-Eastwood Leagues Club Camera Club.
Canyoning photography – a unique form of Nature photography – requires fitness, wetsuits, and potentially abseiling down waterfalls whilst carrying your camera gear.
This presentation tells how three members of the Ryde-Eastwood Camera Club – two experienced canyoning photographers, and a novice in his seventies – prepared for, implemented and succeeded in their aim: to photograph sunbeams coming through the mist of the Rocky Creek Canyon in the Blue Mountains. Their story and the photographs they captured were recently published in the magazine of The Royal Photographic Society in the UK.
This free presentation takes place at 7:30pm on Monday 9 October at the Ryde-Eastwood Leagues Club, 117 Ryedale Road, West Ryde.
We thank the Ryde-Eastwood Leagues Club Camera Club for their kind invitation.

AERIAL/DRONE/NATURE IMAGE FOR THE FCC INTERCLUB
WE NEED YOUR HELP
It’s that time of year again. We’ve been selecting the images that we will be submitting this year in the FCC Interclub NSW. We are fortunate to have so many excellent images that you all have submitted over the last 12 months with a few being selected from the previous year.
We do not have enough images for the digital aerial/drone category and also perhaps a couple in both print nature and digital nature.
If you are using a drone for photography we invite you to choose a couple of your images and upload them via our webpage under the FCC Interclub tab (competition entry page) into the aerial/drone category.
If you have been on a helicopter or light plane and have taken some photographs we invite you to choose a couple of these images and upload them via our webpage under the FCC Interclub tab the aerial/drone category.
Also, we will most likely need a couple more Nature photographs and also invite you to upload any Nature images via our webpage under the FCC Interclub and into the Nature category (you will see one for Print and one for Digital, we’re after a couple of each.
You will see a list of potential categories but we are just after aerial/drone and nature.
I’ll be in contact with the owners of the selected Nature images to ensure that they fulfil the rules. (Not allowed are photographs of human-created hybrid plants, cultivated plants, feral animals domesticated animals, human-created hybrid animals and mounted or preserved zoological specimens. Processing or editing must be limited to making the images look as close to the original scene as possible, except that conversion to greyscale monochrome is allowed.
I’ll also be in contact with the owners of the selected Print images to check that the images can be provided in the required size with a mount 40cm x 50cm and not exceeding 5mms.
Looking forward to seeing any aerial, drone or nature images that you can provide for this competition.
ENTRIES TO BE SUBMITTED BY MONDAY 11TH MIDNIGHT

Tonight’s Meeting 7.45pm
Meeting time is our usual 7.45pm
It is showing as 6.30pm on the calendar on the webpage. The system seems to want to default to that time but it is not correct. Working on fixing that.
