Here are a few dates that you might need for the coming weeks.

Sunday 30th September - A Light Painting session aimed at beginners who would like to learn more about this subject. Ever wondered what Light Painting is all about and what settings to use on your camera? Things such as using Bulb mode, remote control, zoom burst, light trails, double exposures, light writing, back flash silhouettes as well as capturing an orb, a dome and a wire wool spin.Well here's your chance to find out
This session will start at 7pm on Sunday 30th September at the Cumberland Basin. Car Parking details will follow soon

Also, this is the cut-off date for submitting your images to the Reflex RE:CREATE exhibition.

Saturday 13th October - From 10:00am......Setting up the RE:CREATE exhibition at the Create Centre and a photoshoot at the Lifeskills centre whilst we're there. All Reflex members are invited to take part.

Monday 15th October - The RE:CREATE exhibition begins. For 10 weeks up until Christmas around 30 images submitted by members of Reflex will be on display in the Cafe Gallery at the Create Centre. Please spread the word.

Saturday 27th October - The Bristol Zombie Walk 2012. The route has not been published yet, but as soon as I find out, I'll let you know.

Helping out with the RE:CREATE exhibition

As was mentioned at last night's club meeting, we need a few people to help us set up the exhibition at The Create Centre from 10am on Saturday 13th October. Meet up at the cafe gallery.

You may want to bring your own food and drink as the cafe itself will not be open.

Also, we (Reflex Club members) have been given permission to use the Lifeskills Centre (within the Create building) to do a club photoshoot session on the same day.

Lifeskills is an interactive safety education centre, built as a realistic village.  Have a look at the photos on their website to see what they have to offer in terms of doing a photoshoot. Maybe some of you could pursuade a few models to come along and help out?

Some of you members have been there before and know how good this place is.

Please can you announce your interest on the Flickr group thread for all to see.

Thanks.

Well folks, things are now well underway regarding the RE:CREATE photographic exhibition being held by Reflex Camera Club next month at the Create Centre here in Bristol.

26 club members are due to take part and there is still time for four more members to join in. The exhibition will run for ten weeks up until Christmas.

Images need to be submitted by the end of the month as that will give us 14 days to print and frame them ready for the opening day of the exhibition on Monday 15th October.

Please send them in the highest resolution (size) possible to myk1960@hotmail.co.uk or directly to the club's Dropbox. Please name them RECREATE with your name attached.

Frame size is 12x10 and your print will be resized to print at 10x8. Please get in touch with me (Myk Garton) if you require any further information

What a start to the new season at Reflex

Bristol Pride 2012 by Myk Garton
-----------------------------------------------

Well the new season at Reflex Camera Club really got off to a fantastic start last night (Thursday 6th) with probably the highest attendance ever seen.......somewhere around 55 people turning up to see what others had been photographing over the summer break. Many new faces in the crowd too which is always good to see.

The night began with Kev outlining the main meetings coming up over the next nine months and then we had the pleasure of seeing what some of the club members had been photographing over the past three months. Some excellent images were shown, along with some very odd ones by you know who.

Next week we have the first of our club Tutorials -  Everything you need to know about entering (Reflex) competitions

The 2012-13 Season Begins on Thursday 6th September

Just a few more days and the 2012-13 season for Reflex Camera Club begins.

Club membership is growing and so our programme has been increased accordingly. This year will see many new things going on and plenty of club member participation.

Week 1 will see members showing us what they've been up to over the summer break.

Members have the chance to bring in between 10 - 15 digital images to represent what they've been photographing over the Summer Break. Don't be shy go on bring in some pictures and let us see what you've been doing. There's a free cup of tea or coffee at the half time break for the most embarrassing picture of Ian!

A full programme list can be found on the website.
