Chesterfield Photographic Society

We are back at St Thomas Centre on the 11th September for the launch of the new season. Meeting weekly on Thursday evenings at 7:15pm for a 7:30pm start.

We have a varied and interesting events programme lined up including practical workshops, model nights, guest speakers and our usual digital and print competitions. (see Events programme on the web site for specific details on whats on and when).

New members welcome, pop round to see what we are about.

The new season opening evening will provide a chance to catch up with members old and new. We will be talking through the programme for the season ahead and be demonstrating some of the practical sessions we do, giving any new members an opportunity to see what we are about and what they can look forward to.

Do not forget to bring your camera.

Congratulations to Simon Beynon for winning the Overall Photographer of the year and the Print Photographer of the year. Another outstanding year for Simon.

Also, congratulations to Paul Townson for winning the Digital Photographer of the year.

The best print image of the year (voted by members) went to Simon Wilkinson for his image “Sunset on Wells Beach”

A quick reminder that due to the local elections we don’t have a meeting on Thursday 1st May.

Our next get together is on the 8th of May at St Thomas Centre. This meting will be about creating multi exposure images both in camera and using photo editing software. This is a practical evening following on from the techniques and examples presented by Jonathan Vines who visted CPS earlier in the year.

A short presentation on the in camera and out of camera (software approach) to muliple exposure will be given as a quick reminder or to brief those that may have missed Jonathan’s presentation. Then time to have a go yourselves by exploring in and around the centre.

As usual, it’s 7.15 pm for a 7.30 pm start and please bring along your cameras.
