CLUB NIGHT NEWS 2.12.10

Unfortunately, due to having to cancel the club night due to adverse weather conditions, there isn’t any! New news that is. Except the following.

DIGITAL NIGHT, Wednesday 1st December

This also was cancelled, this time due to County Hall shutting down early, again due to adverse weather. Those members with urgent digital processing problems can still seek the advice of the organisers, John Gordon, John Attle and Alan Clarke.

LET SNOW!

Rapidly changing light, sudden blizzards, the great British public in cheerful, stiff upper lip mode – ideal conditions for photography. Remember, St Cuthbert’s Hospice needs calendar pictures of Durham and also Christmas card pictures of the cathedral for 2012. Help this brilliant cause by exercising your photography skills if you can.

Also, if you’re around Palace Green on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, check out the Durham Christmas Market for picture opportunities. Say hello to members John and Louise who have a stall there.

ASSIGNMENT GROUP

Because of the delay caused by the weather, the Assignment Gallery Banks of the Tyne images will now be posted next weekend. If you haven’t already supplied yours to David Forster bring them in next week or email.

FILLINGHAM TROPHY 2011: Set Subject “JUXTAPOSITION”

Juxtaposition noun adjacency, contiguity, contact, proximity, nearness, closeness

Inspired by the recent visit of Will Cheung FRPS, members will no doubt be turning this intriguing challenge into one of their key projects for the next 6 months. Your Blog master can hardly wait to see what the fabulous DPS photographers will make of this one.
