Tuesday 14 March – Technical Challenge
Change of planned Syllabus for Tuesday 21 Feb 23
Good Evening,
A slight change to the planned syllabus for Tuesday 21 Feb, instead of showing the member the images chosen for the Grampian eye competition, we will be now showing the images that SPG have entered into the interclub Competition.
After this we plan on connecting google maps to the display screen and asking members to share some photographic locations they know in the local (and not so Local). Hopefully we can also share some favourable information of these location such as best time of day, best weather ect…… to achieve the best results.
The idea of this is to give members some new locations to get out and explore over the summer break.
We look forward to seeing you all at club on Tuesday night.
Tuesday 14 Feb 23- Results of the 2nd round of the Print League.
Good Evening, on Tuesday evening we had the results of the second round of the print league competition. Tony Winfield kindly judged the images entered and attended on Tuesday to deliver his constructive critique. Tony was very complementary of the standard of print and the presentation of all images entered.

24 Feb 23- Guest Speaker – Steve Truluck
Well, what a splendid night that was at club last night, we welcomed Steve Truluck to SPG for the evening and he delivered an outstanding presentation on his journey and connecting with marine mammals. We were also treated to a showing of ‘Truluck’ which follows Steve on the search for of Orca’s. It was a truly wonderful presentation and one I am sure all in attendance really enjoyed. Thank you Steve and hopefully we can have you back next season to see more of your adventures.
10 Jan 23 – First session of the new Year with Second Round of Digital Image league results.
Good Evening, on Tuesday 10 Jan we held our first club night of the year in our new location UHI Elgin. It was great to see everyone again after the festive celebrations.
We started this year off with the results from the second round of the digital image league. This round had a theme of Portraits (People and Pets). Terry Donnelly FSWPP, Master Photographer was the judge for this round and his comments were read out by Lenny Smith FSWPP. Congratulations to all who entered and we hope you can take the judges comments to help improve your personal photography.
A massive well done to the eventual winner June Jones with her beautiful dog portrait.
We look forward to seeing you all again next week.
13 December 2023 Meeting Cancelled
After much discussion between the committee we have come to the consensus that for the safety of all members tonight’s meeting will be cancelled. Steve’s presentation will be rescheduled for the new year as it is one that we are sure most of the membership will want to be present for. Keep warm and safe and see you all next week for the Christmas quiz.
