Club Photoshoot - Enniskillen Fireworks - 31st October 2017

It was decided at this month's club meeting to once again hold a club photoshoot in Enniskillen on the evening of the annual Halloween fireworks display, which will be held on Tuesday 31st of October.

The fireworks will start at 8:00pm, so members will be meeting at 7:30pm. The meeting place is the car park on the Sligo Road where we met last year. The entrance to the car park is opposite Flame Fireplaces. For those of you unfamiliar with Enniskillen, but have a SatNav - the Postcode is BT74 7JX - and the co-ordinates are N54.344918 W7.649596 (or N54°20'41.7" W7°38'58.5"). 


Members will initially meet inside the entrance to the car park, on the Sligo side (on the left of the entrance looking back towards the road).

Bring a tripod if you have one.

October Meeting and Motivational Theme

The next monthly club meeting will be held on Thursday 12th October from 8:00pm to 10:00pm in our usual meeting place of The Kabin, Rossinver, Co Leitrim (next to the football field).

New members are always welcome!

 The motivational theme for this month is Leading Lines (or Lead-in Lines). We discussed this at the September meeting and, for those of you that were unable to attend, this link explains what is meant by Leading Lines and gives some examples.

Members are encouraged to send in up to four photographs on this theme, taken at any times since the beginning of 2017, for inclusion in the slideshow to be shown after the break at the the July club meeting. Please email your photographs to usual club email address.. If at all possible resize your images so that they are 1024 pixels on their longest edge, and try to make sure that they are received by midnight on Tuesday 10th October.

The slideshow of last month's motivational theme Nature has now been uploaded to the club's YouTube page, and can be viewed here.

Here are a few examples of leading lines in photography:-
