May Meeting The May Meeting theme was Written/Printed Word and as usual a high standard of photography and diverse subject matter was evident amongst the entries. The judging was performed by members of the Peter Carty. Check out the winning Images
Winners were: Stan Best (A Grade Print), Robyn Elliot (B Grade Print), Vicki Crichton (Mono) and Helen Bishop (EDI). While the runners up were: Brian Paatsch (A Grade Print), Judy Hofmeyerr (B Grade Print), David Willis (Mono) John Osmond (EDI).

At the meeting a vote was taken to split the EDI competition into A & B Grades.
EDI section is now graded
and with this change we ask members to not only supply images for the EDI section, but also an EDI copy of the print images. (This eliminates the need to scan images from the prints as well as providing quality images for projection). They are to be sized as per our normal specifications.

The EDI naming convention is as follows:
-Colour Prints:       [A Grade]   43~Title~CPA        [B Grade]    43~Title~CPB
-Monochrome Print:    43~Title~M
-EDI Images:         [A Grade]   43~Title~EDIA      [B Grade]    43~Title~EDIB

March - Bowna Sunset and BBQ Outing
Bowna Sunset Those who attended the camera shoot and BBQ at Bowna during March had the chance to capture some stunning images in perfect weather conditions. Although the sunset it self was far from stunning the lighting was excellent for shooting. Visit the “Outings” page for more images.

Competition Judges Comments
It has been decided and accepted by the members at the December meeting that Judges comments will continue to be published on the links on the Competition page and will be individuality available at club meetings in PDF format and if you desire can be put on your USB stick when you submit your EDI's (don't forget to remind the computer officer you require a copy). They will no longer be available in the printed format at meetings!

Monthly Meeting Room Roster
We are asking for 2 people at monthly meetings to become room stewards and at this months meeting a roster list was taken which filled the requirement up until August. We still need to fill the remaining months, so if you were'nt present or would like to nominate another night please let the President or Secretary know?
At the bottom left panel is the roster as it now stands along with the role descreption.
