CHAIRMAN’S CHAT

The last meeting of the club is now come and gone. The last meeting of the

year always seems to be a very successful meeting. The main reason, of

course, is the cheese and wine which Renata provides. The variety of

cheeses was fantastic and it is obvious that Renato goes a lot of trouble to

get such a wonderful selection. Following the rather quiet meetings that we

had for the annual competitions it was really great to see a nice turnout of

members at the last meeting. Whether it was for the great food or the

great photography, it doesn’t matter as it was a very enjoyable evening.

This is the time of the year that I look forward to taking my camera on

holiday with me. Every year we go down to the coast and I tried my hand at

some seascapes. I have to be honest, I haven’t been that successful in the

past. It seems to be relatively straightforward to take a decent seascape

photograph but in practice it is not that easy. Last year I tried to take

those seascapes where the sea is soft and fluffy but I found that as soon as

there was any light in the sky, the exposures were not long enough. I have

now found myself a fairly strong neutral density filter so this year I am

going to try that out. For seascapes, just like landscapes, the weather has to

play along as well to really get a good photograph. When you get up before

sunrise it is often difficult to tell whether it’s going to be like. Some clouds

in the sky usually make a very good photograph but too many clouds and the

photograph is flat and dull. It is hard to get out of bed before sunrise but I

cannot remember a single occasion where I regretted it. One of the other

problems that I have experienced is that I have never found an exciting

location. I have tried a number of kilometres both north and south of our

stay but he landscapes always seemed pretty ordinary. Nevertheless, I will

once again load my camera and tripod into the car and head off to the sea

full of renewed enthusiasm.

If you are going on holiday as well I trust that you will have restful and

peaceful time and that you get some awesome pictures. The committee has

really discussed some possible outings and activities for next year so I am

really looking forward to another great club year.

Best wishes

Colin
