Finding Artistic Development

David Blecman, on behalf of the newly rejuvenated Tidewater Camera Club, is going to lead an outing at 10:00 a.m. on July 6th in Easton. The theme for this outing will be photographing nature and waterscapes.
We will meet at 10:00 a.m. on the parking lot just over the Dover Bridge which is on Route 331 four miles east of Route 50. If the parking lot is full because it is small, just park along the shoulder and take caution.
We will walk the old bridge underneath of the Dover Bridge to photograph nature and the Choptank River in both the Northeast and South directions. David will provide some very basic instructions for those that want it, but we are going to try to keep this more as a casual photography outing and get-together.
A wide angle to medium telephoto lens should do the trick, and you may possibly want to bring a circular polarizer, neutral density filter, and a tripod.
If the weather doesn’t look promising, check back HERE on the calendar listing- it will be marked “Cancelled due to weather” by 9am if we aren’t going to meet.

The Club supports a number of Special Interest Groups (SIG's) to address varied photographic interests of the members. Currently the club recognizes SIGs for Wildlife Photography, Landscape Photography, Travel Photography and Post Processing.
Club members are welcome to "join" any SIG and meet for photo outings, reviewing prints and whatever else supports their common photographic interests. Scheduled SIG activity is published on the club calendar. Interested TCC members may contact the SIG leader for more information.
A Speaker will first present a Lecture on a photographic topic and indicate an "Assignment". This Assignment is a call for members to submit images based on criteria discussed in the lecture. This assignment could be viewed as a Theme, or as a challenge to try something new, or an opportunity to display a member's current grasp of the photographic concept presented.
Image Requirements: Submitted images will be JPG images preferably in sRGB colorspace to render colors correctly on screen. Size the images 1500 pixels on the long side, which means the image should be 1500 pixels tall or 1500 pixels wide or 1500 x1500 pixels square and not larger. Members will be allowed to submit up to two entries using their Member ID Number followed by -1, or -2 as their entry name. This process will allow the Speaker to discuss individual submissions and identify common strengths and areas for further attention. Example: 123-1.jpg & 123-2.jpg
Image subject matter will vary as specified by the Speaker, and they will be displayed on the Club website.
Members are encouraged to make friends and work together, even on assignments. The Club expects submitted images to be the work of the member submitting. Post Capture Processing is viewed as an expected part of the Digital Image Making process which begins with an idea, equipment selection and actual image capture.
Tidewater Camera Club exhibits member prints in a variety of local venues throughout the year. Many believe that the print is the ultimate expression of a photograph.
A local club exhibit is a great place for the photographer to express a vision and connect with others.
Each venue will come with unique opportunity, whether a juried collection of prints chosen to work together, a themed exhibit or a ‘member’s choice’ opportunity to examine what members believe represents their best work. Often, the prints will be available for sale.
