Welcome

I would like to welcome Vanessa Cummins to the club. I hope you enjoy all that the club has to offer.

North Mundham

All of us who have attended our exhibition at North Mundham will appreciate the amount of work Sarah has put into managing and running the catering for the event. We need someone with Level 2 Food Hygiene training to manage the catering. If we are unable to find a volunteer from the club, we shall be unable to provide catering for this event. There is a course taking place on Wednesday 18^th November in Chichester. The club will pay the fee for any member wishing to attend this course. More details can be found by contacting Nikki Holden or Brian Muir. The exhibition takes place on Saturday and Sunday, 6^th and 7^th February 2027, and is for advanced members only.

PAGB Master of Print – Club entries

Peter Rocchiccioli is coordinating the Club’s entries and will take them on Sunday 29 November.

Please give Peter your entries by Thursday 19 November. No extensions are possible.

The fee is £3.00 per print, payable in cash with your prints. Each entrant may submit up to five entries.

Submit prints on A3 paper, unmounted, and send Peter a PDI of each image in JPEG format. Each PDI must measure2400 pixels on its longer side, whether landscape or portrait, with a maximum file size of 3,500kb.

This larger–than–usual image size is required for the catalogue.

Please note that prints will not be returned.

Peter needs the PDIs to upload with your entries. Include your full name, each image title and its category: Colour, Mono or Nature.

Entry conditions:

Each photographer must belong to an affiliated Club and may enter only once.

Entries through the PAGB Group are therefore open only to Chichester Camera Club members.

The PAGB seeks unfamiliar work rather than images with an exhibition history.

Images are ineligible if they have appeared at a National or PAGB event, been published in an exhibition catalogue (including DVD or online catalogues), or been accepted in any category of a previous Masters of Print competition.

Images remain eligible if they have been shown only within your Club, at local inter-Club competitions, or within your Federation.

As an exception, images used in a Club entry to the PAGB Inter-Club Print and/or PDI Championships in the same calendar year as the Masters of Print entry are eligible.

RPS & Projects Group – Tuesday 17^th November

Come along to the TVC main hall from 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start. In November, as well as continuing support for RPS distinctions, we’ll be looking at Lorna’s small project on Industrial Remains. This is much more contained than John’s extensive work and was put together for North Mundham but is based on Lorna’s ongoing love of now-desolate places that were once hives of industry. We’ll also be starting a potential AV project about our very own Annual Exhibition,with prints by Nikki Holden and storyboarding. Come and join us, with some work if you’re ready, or just to see what we do. £3 for Club Members; £5 for visitors.

The website is open for North Mundham PDI submissions. Entries close on 31 December.

Club Night – Thursday 19th November

Our 1^st Club and Intermediate Print competition will be judged by Carol Walker.

Second Advanced Print competition

Online entries are now open for the 2^nd Advanced Print competition. Entries will close at midnight on 19^th November, with the competition being held on 3^rd December.

Club Night Thursday 12^th November

We welcomed Caroline Preece, who presented the second in a series of three talks entitled “From Convention to Creation”. It was an extremely informative and thought-provoking evening. Thanks, Caroline. I am looking forward to part three on 18^th February 2027.
