Print and Slide Evaluation Night

There will be a print and slide evaluation night at the clubrooms on Tuesday April 3. This is an opportunity for members to show their work in a non-competitive environment and get some constructive feedback from other members, some of whom are judges for camera club competitions. Members who haven't entered in competitions yet can get some good advice and encouragement.
