League Tables
Camborne & Redruth Camera Club (CRCC)
Friday 19th March 2010
On Tuesday (16-03-10) the Camborne-Redruth Camera Club held another of its Portrait and Table Top sessions at the Treleigh Church Hall. For portraiture, Jenny Goodman and Val Burtenshaw took on the role as models as did Bob Morgan’s dog ‘Jack’. Two tables were set up for the still life photographers and there were plenty of items available for the members to arrange into attractive settings.
Reg Poad (Chairman) thanked everyone who had helped to make it yet another successful evening. The next Portrait and Table top evening will take place on Thursday 29 April.
Last Thursday evening, again at Treleigh, C-RCC met for the 4 th and Final Open Competition of the Club’s 2009/10 Winter Programme. Reg Poad welcomed Adrian Rowlands (Truro Camera Club), the judge for the evening.
Adrian said in his opening remarks that he really liked the way that the work entered by the members of C-RCC always pushed the judge particularly with the treatment of some of the more creative entries.
During his judgement Adrian Rowlands talked about each image in considerable detail and gave helpful suggestions regarding composition, better control of the depth of field in a picture and with some of the bird pictures he felt that sharpness was a priority to bring out the quality of the feathers and in particular the eyes. All in all he thought the overall quality of the work was extremely high but in the end the results reflected his personal views.
