Thanks Colin Barr of "Digitype"


After recieving my print of "Cafe Enzo" from Colin Barr last week I have been "playing" with more photos in P/shop.
Thank you to Colin for donating such a great prize. The print looks great, it is on watercolour paper which really suits the canvas texture and it's huge!

BCC 1st Digital competition results


BCC held its first digital (submission) competition, with all entries being judged last night by Colin Barr. Colin's technical knowledge and experience made the night very worthwhile, providing many suggestions about working with digital images. While we may review the guidelines for submission for the next digital competion, I think everyone seemed to think the night was successfull.

Colin selected Vicki's 'Cafe Enzo' as 'image of the night'. Congratulations, Vicki.

Each day I'll post some more entries from the competition.

A strange species of bird seen wandering the streets of Port Fairy during our recent visit - it was actually a "book owl" promoting their Literary Festival last weekend.

PhotoShop or PaintShop



Hello,

We are looking for suggestions of what features/techniques you would like to learn about using PhotoShop or PaintShop which we could demonstrate with our new computer. For example, the Star Wars light saber effect I used in one of my photos. The original colour was blue and I added the glow effect.

If you have any suggestions, don't create a new message, select 'comment' below to add your ideas and suggestions to the end of this message.

G'day All -- Just testing.

Just a test to check if all is working correctly for me.

Great idea Mark :-)

Invitation from Finley Camera Club


Hi Mark,

We would be very pleased to have any of your members attend a workshop and talk by internationally recognised professional photographer Mercury Megaloudis.

Australian Photography and the American Rangefinder magazines both recently profiled Mercury.

Last year he addressed 1000 professional photographers in Las Vegas, 1500 this year at New Orleans, has been invited to speak in Ireland in January. He also conducts professional seminars around Australia.

Mercury’s own work seems to be up-market portraits and groups, also product photography. His website is at mega.com.au

We have asked Mercury to run a sort of workshop on Portraits, he has also suggested speaking on 'Inspiration'. The session will probably run for two to three hours.

The cost is very reasonable, nothing, thanks to generosity of a friend, and the Finley RS Club who are not charging us for the venue. The club has a smorgasbord from 6pm, at $13 per head, and is reserving tables for our group.

I'll be in touch shortly, to check whether any are likely to attend from your club. It will help if we can get a rough idea of numbers. Do hope to see some of you. Other clubs in the region are being invited.

If anybody wishes to make a weekend of it we would organize a BBQ, with bit of boating etcetera on the Murray. Mercury and his family will be holidaying here for two or three nights.

Best Regards,

Alf Green. ph 03 5874 2322 getalf@hotmail.com

Finley & District Camera Club.

Venue: Finley RS Club, 63 Tocumwal Street. A street map is attached.

Time: 7.30pm, Friday 30th of September. Smorgasbord from 6pm.

Motels: Three motels in town.

Weekend: Other activities if required.

Thanks

Hi fellow photographers.

Thanks for the invite to your clubs blog. A great idea. Hope no one gets a rap on the knuckles for inviting me -an opinionated person but i'll be kind. Honest!!!! I'm a bit dumb about this stuff but will learn i'm sure. Can i send a pic or two for comments & critisim & can i comment on your pics too?

Cheers
Scott

It seems to be working.....


I think this should be more interesting than a standard web page, as someone has to keep it update. A web blogg is a lot more interactive. If this doesn't get used then there is probably not much point creating a standard web site, although if someone wants to volenteer to create and maintain a site, speak up!

I'm still note sure if anyone is able to add a comment to a blog (new entry), please try leaving a comment. If it doesn't work let me know.

I think anyone should be able to leave a comment to a blogg, but not actually create a blogg unless you are registered.

Its a bit confusing at first, but once you get used to the layout its quite simple to use.
I think I'm in!!
Good one Mark, let's hope it gets used.

I'm in too

Tried to post a comment on Mark's photos without success. Finding this a bit difficult to handle at the moment.

I'm in.

Well I think I am in, just trying it out, Hi Mark.
