NEW Photography Meetup Group

28 Friday Nov 2014

Posted by rachelstevens01 in News, Photo Opportunity, Uncategorized, Useful Links

≈ Comments Off on NEW Photography Meetup Group

Good afternoon Everyone.

I’m very excited to announce the launch of our new field trip group on meetup.com

This is where we will notify members of weekend excursions throughout the year (it will also be updated on our website calendar), this group is totally informal and you are more than welcome to bring a friend along. The aim of the group is to get everyone out and about with their camera, mingle with other members and most importantly have FUN! If you have any suggestions of where you might like to go for a field trip, there is a suggestion link on the home page of meetup.com.

Very shortly you will all receive an email from me that looks like this….

Meetup Email

Please sign up if you would like to be notified of up and coming field trips, any anything else to do with photography.

Look forward to seeing you all at the first meetup in mid Janurary.

Have a great weekend,

Rach

≈ Comments Off on PSNZ Central Regional Salon Success

Not only did all those who went to the PSNZ Central Regional Convention in Silverstream have a wonderful time, but I came home with my car loaded up with three trophies for KCPS and its members.  I’ll bring them along to the AGM tomorrow night.

  1. KCPS came first in the Interclub Digital Competition, winning the Wanganui Cup.
  2. Alison Viskovic’s image “Communication” in our digital set won “Champion Interclub Digital Image”, so she was awarded the Heney Cup.
  3. KCPS came third in the Interclub Prints Competition. My print “Upper Antelope Canyon” in our KCPS set won “Champion Interclub Print”, so I was awarded the Stratford Cup.

Final Month Events and Details

04 Tuesday Nov 2014

Posted by KCPS in Calendar, Competitions, Reminder

≈ Comments Off on Final Month Events and Details

We’re into the final month of activities for this year.  A rundown of what has already happened, and what is coming up:

Development Group – 3 November

We had a good attendance last night, and everyone (including me) learned more about how Lightroom can be used to input, organise and post-process images.

Best of Year Entries – Due by 10 November

These can be entered online now. You can enter via the SALON ENTRY menu item on our website, or go direct to http://www.jotform.co/KCPS/bestofyear.  Remember there are no grades for this final competition.  Any member can enter one digital image and one print but they must be the same (or based on) images which were entered in one of the four salons during the year.

Online entries must be in by 5 pm on Monday 10 November. Bring your print along to the AGM that evening.

AGM – 10 November

The  AGM will be held at 7:30 pm on Monday 10 November, at OBC.  Following the AGM we will show the AV of this year’s Laurie Thomas Landscape Competition.

Formal notice of the AGM was earlier sent to members, and further documents will be distributed.

For this meeting:

  • Don’t be shy about putting your name forward to join the Committee.  It is very rewarding to be involved in running our Society, and it’s always good to get new people with new ideas.  Please bring along your completed nomination form.
  • Please bring along your matted print for the Best of Year Entry, along with a printout of the online entry you made (or a note with your name and the print title).
  • We expect to have, for return to members, any unclaimed prints from the KCPS set or from individuals that were submitted to the PSNZ Central Region Salon being held this coming weekend at Silverstream.
  • Bring along up to two mounted (but unframed) prints you would like to display at the Kapiti Arts Trail (to be held on the weekend of 15-16 November), with a price indicated if they are available to sell. While we see this mainly as an opportunity to promote the club, visitors do also expect some works to be for sale.
  • Bring money to buy tickets for the EOY function ….

EOY FUNCTION – 24 November

This year’s venue for the EOY will be the Kapiti Club at 32 Marine Parade, Paraparaumu Beach.  The function will start at 7 pm. The esteemed John Boyd will be the judge for the Best of Year Competition, and other awards will be given.  This is always a great night – don’t miss it.
