The April theme for the Milton Ulladulla District Camera Club's [MUDCC] print competition was 'Still Life'.
As usual, the club also had an open category section.
Print 'Still Life' and 'Open' entries were displayed at the Club's meeting on April 22 2024 for judging by Denis Cale - a lifetime member of the Shoalhaven Photographic Club.
The Images of the Month were as follows:
The "Theme Photo of the Month" was awarded to Gerard Taniane, with his photo titled 'Skull n Rose'.
The winner of the "Open Photo of the Month" was Kim Muller with his photo titled 'Eyes on the Prize'.
In addition to MUDCC's Facebook presence, the club now has a new website: https://miltonulladulla.myphotoclub.com.au.
The club's events schedule, competitions, rules, procedures and image entry portal are included on the site. Non-members have access to the competition schedule and basic information on how to join or get in contact with the club.
The next club competition theme is 'Portraits'.
Club members are required to submit digital projected image [DPI] entries to the Club website by May 13 for judging at the May 27 club meeting.
Portraiture involves depicting the personality, identity, essence and attitude of a person or people by careful use of posing, lighting and location.
It features heavily in the history of photography and is one of its foundations.
Portrait photography encourages you to think as much about narrative as about the technical aspects of your image. What inherent facets of your subject do you wish to highlight for the viewer and how might you convey them. Usually, the face or faces of the subject/s are shown in the photograph, but faceless portraits can also be very engaging, requiring you to think even more carefully about setting and about parts of the body other than the face that speak of your subject.
The final 2023/24 competition theme is 'Silhouettes' print in June.
The club has a broad range of membership covering novice photographers, skilled snappers and even some professionals.
The club's skilled members and external professionals regularly hold 'learning' evenings to share expertise and knowledge.
