| July 6 & 7th | WINTERFEST SYDNEY MEDIEVAL FAIR | From jousting, archery and combat to crafts, cooking and games, Winterfest offers entertainment to watch and activities to try. You can also browse the offerings of our carefully selected merchants. There’s something for all ages. https://winterfest.com.au/ |
The Federation of Camera Clubs (FCC) hosts two annual competitions – an interclub competition and TopShot – an individual competition open to all members of camera clubs that belong to the FCC.
For full details go to the relevant site:
Other competitions available for entry can be found in our events calendar.
...Any position holder for a club can edit their club’s details – click here to enter the email address of one your currently registered position holders to edit your club’s details.
...In last month’s F/Stop we announced that the FCC was intending to run judges courses this year as a first step in developing new judges available to clubs.
The initial course will be held in Sydney at the Ryde Eastwood Leagues Club on the 28th and 29th of September. The course is intended for experienced photographers who are considering becoming judges and are interested in supporting and encourage club members in the development of their photographic skills, as well as support local clubs by doing this. Becoming a judge can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience. The course will be run over the 2 days of a weekend.
The first day will include presentations on the skills required to evaluate, critique and present while judging images at a club. The second day usually involves some elements of public speaking and exercises in image assessment.
A detailed program will be available closer to the dates. I have received a number of expressions of interest after last month’s F/Stop was distributed. If you are interested in attending please send an email to fccfstopeditor@gmail.com
