Weekly MCC News #21 – 12-June-2022 – Melbourne Camera Club

When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls! Ted Grant

We might run out of photography quotes sometime shortly. It would be good to have a few from other sources.

Competition Committee: Change to Competition Entry Submission Date

The submission date for the electronic versions of both Print and PDI entries are to be changed to the Wednesday night before the Print Competition, at 11:59pm.

This will allow the stewards time to identify potential duplicate images prior to the Print Competition night and prior to images being sent to the judge for PDI.

If a member puts up a print image that has not been submitted electronically the night before, then it will be moved to the Image Critique section.

We believe this will make the competitions fairer for all entrants.

Photography Exhibition: ‘Men with Heart’

Members and friends of MCC are invited to visit the ‘Men with Heart’ exhibition which is being held at the Clubrooms from 12 June to 3 July.

‘A powerful and moving, multi-award winning exhibition shot over two decades exploring what defines healthy masculinity in Australian culture today’
