We are now adding news to the website (see below for index) and porting over the Newsletter Archive from the Camera Angle Newsletter.
We may be forced to remove the club’s online calendar. That information can be found in the newsletter.

INTRODUCING “EXPANDED NATURE”
April’s exhibition is the first of three for 2022 that will allow Nature submissions using the new “Expanded Nature” ruleset. Here’s a recap of the details:
Periodically, monthly club exhibitions will allow (but not require) submissions that depict the intersection of nature and human civilization.
This expansion is not a new or separate category. Submissions will be part of the members’ annual Nature (NAT) scores whether they follow the expanded or traditional rules.
Accepted images will be eligible for end-of-the-year awards alongside traditional nature submissions.
For Exhibitions allowing Expanded Nature, members may choose to submit either “Expanded Nature” or “Traditional Nature” entries
Submissions may include the removal of distracting elements or defects and may reflect depiction of all branches of natural history, including anthropology and archeology
Examples of Expanded Nature include:
2021
Remember, the Club takes August off.
We are starting something new in 2021 – Monthly photography challenges. That being said, the challenge for March 2021 will be “Mobile Phone (or in-camera) Panoramas. Show us what you come up with during our 4th Tuesday Program. We’d love to see other member’s creative vision.
How are you staying motivated during Coivd? We’d love to hear how you’re managing with the pandemic and the pursuit of photography.
We’d really like some help with our 4th Tuesdays. If you’ve got ideas, reach out and share them.
We’re off and running, having just wrapped up our first juried exhibition. Online meetings have allowed us to keep pursuing our passion for photography and keep our club going strong. We’re looking forward to seeing lots of stunning images throughout the year. Happy Shooting.
Welcome to CCCC 2021! Although we’re starting the year with restrictions few of us ever imagined would still be keeping us isolated and close to home, we’re well-positioned to have another outstanding year! It’s starting out with a bang on February 2nd, with the first Exhibition Night.
We’ve added the option to pay your dues online. You’ll find that information on the Membership Page.
RANDOM PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS:
1. Fill the frame. Be bold. Eliminate distractions.
2. Try a different point of view. High, low, anything that makes a viewer take just an extra second or two digesting your image. It’s all about perspective, share yours.
3. Keep it simple. You don’t need to include everything you see in your images. Let your subject shine through by avoiding clutter. Remember, the parts are often greater than the sum of the whole.
4. Keep your camera with you. Don’t leave home without it. You’ll be surprised by the results.
5. There’s always something to shoot. Take an idea and go from there.
