The new season at Penryn Camera Club is only a few weeks old and we’ve had
another first for the new club year – Thursday’s meeting saw our first practical
evening. Members arrived at the Space with their cameras and assorted gear they
were presented with two opportunities for the evening. With the weather not looking
great there was the option of staying in the hall and photographing a variety of items
using tripods and different light sources. For the more adventurous a brief trip out
was on offer with a visit to the docks of Falmouth to try nigh time photography. Both
groups had a great time experimenting with different techniques and sharing their
expertise. Those out at the docks thought that they had chosen the wrong option as
rain poured down. But after a brief wait the rain passed and some beautiful images
were achieved of the lights around the dry dock and over the main dock area
towards the harbour. Then both groups met up again at the Space for coffee, cake
and chat as we celebrated Keith’s birthday. For our new members it was another
great opportunity to get to know other club members.
