Just a quick note on foot of last week 's very interesting club meeting (and thanks to Padraig Thornton
for his amazing slideshow)...
The motivational theme chosen for this month was "Car Lights At Night".
As a result it was decided that we would hold a club photoshoot next Thursday evening (19th September) starting at 7:30pm in Manorhamilton - during
which members could practice or learn some of the skills that may be
needed to produce such photographs in low light. All club members are
welcome to attend.
Please meet in the car park at Manorhamilton Castle (on the
Rossinver/Garrison road just opposite the children's play park) at
7:30pm. If you have a tripod please bring it along with you (a few
members may have spare ones). It might also be a good idea to also bring
wet weather gear (including a plastic bag for your camera) in case the
night is not dry.
It is expected that we shall finish around 9:30. If you
arrive late and are not sure where the group have gone you are welcome
to text me on my mobile.
Hope to see you many of you on the night!
Marty
Club Secretary.

Just a reminder that the next meeting of Rainbow Camera Club will be held on Thursday evening next, 12th September, from 8:00pm to 10:00pm in our usual venue of The Cabin, Rossinver, Co Leitrim.
In the first part of the meeting club member Padraig Thornton has very kindly offered to give us a talk (and possibly a slideshow) at that meeting about some of his nature photographs.
(2) MOTIVATIONAL THEME
In the second part of next Thursday's meeting a slideshow will be given of the photographs that club members have sent in under the motivational theme Roads which was chosen at last months meeting. Members are encouraged to send up to three images under this theme (which you may interpret in any way you see fit) to the club's email address (ranbowcameraclub @ gmail.com - remove the spaces) by midnight Monday 9th September for inclusion in the slideshow. Ideally resize your images to 1024 pixels on their longest edges before emailing them.
