Club News

Peter Picthall and Audrey Gray

I (Derek) awoke this morning thinking about two dear members of SCC who passed away recently. They were not just members of our club but dear friends as well. This is one of the advantages of being a small club where everybody knows everybody else. They will be sorely missed and we send our sincere condolences to all their relatives.

Congratulations to Steyning

Ian Brash did a great job judging the Southdown 2020 competition. He reviewed all of the images and then marked them at the end.

Steyning came out on top this time and Storrington came fourth out of the five clubs which took part.

Colour Management with the i1Switch

First meeting of the new year started with Janet's Parish notes and then on with Martin’s talk about colour management.

This is something that I used to do before I got my iMac but since then I have not found it necessary for the standard of printing that I do these days, but my standards would not suit the likes of Liz and Janet and other very good photographers.

The last meeting of 2019

Event

Our Chairman Janet did us all proud this evening. After a very few Parish notices, Norman announced the results of last months Flickr competition. Our top photographer, Liz (she has several very close contenders for the title, so she must ‘keep up’), took the top spot again, well done Liz.

Tables of four were set out and we sat ourselves down with whoever would have us, and there we found two sheets of paper for us to record answers to Janet’s quiz questions.

That all done and dusted, Janet started the first of her dastardly competitions.

Thirty Days on Safari

We were pleased to welcome David Smith from Woking Camera Club to tell all about his experiences of and expertise in "Safari Photography". We also welcomed a fair number of visitors from Steyning Camera Club - proving just how popular nature photography is now.

David started by mentioning his camera kit - just one camera, a mirrorless Sony full frame job, and one lens, 150-400mm telephoto zoom. He had swopped from a Canon DSLR and lenses when the weight of his camera bag exceeded the luggage allowance on internal flights around the safari camps!
