Warm Welcome
Whatever your level, you'll get a warm and friendly welcome at our camera club.
Passion
We love photography. Many of our members are out taking photos every week if not every day.
Proud History
We're one of the oldest camera Clubs in the UK. Our first meeting was held in October 1921.
Experience
From those who have been taking photos for 60 years or more, to those who only started recently, we're involved in just about every kind of photography.
Summer Break
The club is currently on its summer break.
We resume meetings on 4th September 2014.
New members are welcome to join us at the start of our 2014/15 season. Please get in touch over the summer.
Welcome
Welcome to Letchworth Garden City camera Club!
We are a group of photography enthusiasts who meet to share and grow our interests in all things photography.
Our weekly meetings are held from September to June. They offer a balanced programme of talks, print and digital image competitions, demonstrations, practical and social evenings. There are opportunities to visit other clubs in the area for competitions. We also hold an annual exhibition when our work is on public display.
We have a wide range of membership from beginners to experienced and semi professional photographers and hope to provide something for everyone.
We have no formal course of instruction, but experienced members are always available to give advice, and we frequently exchange hints and tips.
Please try us for a couple of meetings before you decide to join. Just call us to let us know you'll be popping in.
We meet in the Brunt Room at the Settlement in Nevells Road, on Thursday evenings at 7.45 for 8.0 pm.
What We Do
Experienced club members run workshops throughout the season where they pass on their knowledge of particular areas of interest.
Recent workshops have included macro photography, RAW Images, Lightroom, Sports & Action photography, iPhoneography & Mounting Prints, etc.
Throughout the season we have regular visits from guests who share their images, techniques and experiences with us.
Recent guests have told us about Air-to-Air Photography, Falklands Islands wildlife, Machu Pichu, photography in the Far East & how judges assess our images.
We organise club outings both on formal and informal basis.
Recent outings have included evenings with local professional studios where we have done both outdoor and studio model shoots.
We hold a series of friendly competitions where members' images are judged by guest judges. This culminates in the annual award of three cups for Best Colour Print, Best Monochrome Print and Best Digital Image.
We take part in several competitions with other clubs in the area. The best images from Letchworth are put up against the best from other clubs.
Every year we hold a public exhibition where members get to display their work. Recent exhibitions have been at both Museums in Letchworth and also retail premises in the town centre. Everybody in the club gets to show a selection of their prints.
