July Club Meeting & Motivational Slideshows

The next meeting of Rainbow Camera Club will be held on Thursday, 10th July, in our usual venue of The Cabin (beside the football field), Rossinver, Co Leitrim from 8:00pm to 10:00pm.

At this meeting Boyle-based photographer Tony Murphy will be giving us a talk and presentation
about the early life of Fr Frank Browne, one of Ireland's most famous photographers. In particular he will talk about the photographs Fr Browne took of the Titanic on its maiden voyage between Southampton and Queenstown (now called Cobh) in 1912. 

Please try to get along to this meeting if you possibly can, as this is our first outside speaker, and it would be a shame if he turned up to talk to a small number of people.

MOTIVATIONAL THEMES
The motivational theme for next week's meeting is PETS. Members may interpret this theme in any way they see fit, and all members are encouraged to submit up to four images on this theme, taken since the January 2014 meeting (9th January 2014), for inclusion in the slideshow after the break at this month's meeting.

Please email your photographs to this address (rainbowcameraclub@gmail.com). If at all possible resize your images so that they are 1024 pixels on their longest edge, and make sure that they are sent by
midnight on Tuesday 8th July.


The slideshow from last month's meeting (Theme: Colours) has now been uploaded to the club's YouTube page and can be viewed here.

Finally, a reminder that there will be no club meeting in August, and that the remaining motivational themes up to the end of the year are as follows:-

  • September - Architecture
  • October - Trees
  • November - Hedgerows
  • December - Portraits
