Janey Devine : ‘Staying Local’ – In March 2020 plans for photography trips, workshops and holidays came to an abrupt halt. As her camera began to disappear under a layer of dust, Janey started to work on a few projects closer to home. She will show some of the images from 3 projects she undertook around her local area in Southampton.

Matt Emmett : Abandoned Architecture
2021-09-02 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
THERE ARE NO MEETINGS AT TANGMERE FROM SEPTEMBER TO DECEMBER 2021.

There is a thrill in exploring an environment that allows you to step into a previously unknown world and discover something first-hand, taking your time and noting the details as you go.
After a chance encounter with a jet engine testing establishment I was drawn into the world of abandoned photography and became hooked on the fascinating back stories and atmospheric sense of place and history. Capturing and bringing these stories has evolved into a 9 year project entitlted ‘Forgotten Heritage’.
From the crumbling shells of Italy’s abandoned villas and asylumsto Belgiums rusting industrial remnants, immense and powerful beautfy is revealed.

Paul Sanders : A Mindful Approach to Photography
2021-09-09 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
THERE ARE NO MEETINGS AT TANGMERE FROM SEPTEMBER TO DECEMBER 2021.
Paul is well known as an outstanding landscape photographer but he’s also a passionate believer in how photography can help with mental health issues. Indeed, Paul has been very open about his own struggles with anxiety and depression.
The art of slowing down is becoming harder for us all with the pressures and noisy distractions of the world around us. Paul explains his slowing down approach to photography, using his craft as a meditation and appreciation of the world around him. This candid and very personal presentation highlights the importance of discovering the photographer you are and who you photograph to please.
Paul is a Fujifilm ambassador, Lee Filters master photographer and former Picture Editor of The Times.

For the first time since 10 Mar 20, the Print Group meets in the Tangmere Village Centre with our usual mix of work in progress through to favourite prints brought along to share.
Although there are no large print competitions until next year, the small print competition is still in the programme and the North Mundham exhibition will need preparation during the autumn. So it’s never too early to get your thinking caps on and prepare some prints.
We meet at 7.15 for a 7.30pm start in the small hall at Tangmere Village Centre, with a £3 charge for Club Members (£4 non-members).

Not just the Developers Group
2021-09-20 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
============== Open to Intermediates too! ==============
This first session outlines the programme content for the entire year, and sets the scene for both the Small Print Competition and, well, everyone else too (forget those pesky Advanced members …). It also outlines the five or so Photowalks (or more!) we will do in the area. Do be there – it will be your opportunity to influence the content of what happens throughout the year, including the number and dates of the Photowalks (so far I’ve entered five dates, all of which will have to be moved for various reasons).
It will be really good to get as many Intermediates in the room – to give some guidance as to what content you really want to see during the year.
The Agenda (still and since Mike Harris’ note) will look something like this;

Structure of the sessions – Small Print Competition – Developers and Intermediates Topics – Clinics
Small Print Competition – how it will work over the five rounds
Overview of Group Educational Topics over eight sessions
Dates and days of five Photowalks
Use of media to manage Photowalks and to share images
Just what is our name???
Clinic (?)

RPS Group
2021-09-21 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
I’m pleased to say the RPS group has chosen to meet at our usual venue again in September after a period of virtual meetings.

Our first meeting of the new season will offer an introduction to the various distinctions made by the Royal Photographic Society so if you are interested in finding out more about how to put together a portfolio of images that meet the RPS’s criteria do come along.

A number of recent successful panels will be on show along with an overview of the requirements. It will also be a particular pleasure to see some of the work in progress that so far we have only seen online and hear from those developing submissions.

If you already have some ideas about work to enter, you are also very welcome to bring that along. There’s is no need to mount that and small prints are perfectly suitable to begin with. it is however helpful if you do stick prints to a card of some kind as this will keep them upright on the display boards we use.

Mindful of Covid precautions, there will be sanitiser available, we will keep the room ventilated and please bring the correct change (£3) to avoid handing money. I regret that although these sessions are usually open to none members, to keep our number low that is not possible just now.

We meet at 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start in the small hall at Tangmere Village Centre.

Michael Berkley: An Introduction to Music and Sport Photography
2021-09-23 19:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
I have been taking photographs for most of my life. My Father was an Associate of the Royal Photographic Society and I spent many happy hours with him in his darkroom when I was growing up. He was my inspiration.
I specialise in photographing sport and music, but also enjoy travel and street photography. Based near Salisbury, I am one of the house photographers at The Joiners music venue in Southampton, and photograph regularly for Hampshire Cricket Club, Salisbury Football Club and Druids Lodge Polo Club. I have photographed some 25 different sports and am always looking for new opportunities.
This talk is about how to get started in the fields of music and sports photography and provides examples of what and doesn’t work. I cover general principles and ‘free form’.

Club Photowalk - Petworth Park Deer
2021-10-03 15:00 - 20:00 | Petworth Park, GU28 9LR
===== Open to all Chichester Camera Club members =======
NOTE – The date for this first Photowalk has indeed been changed to the SUNDAY after a decision in the Developers Group meeting at Tangmere on 20th September
================================================
The first outdoors event is primarily for social reasons – to get to know anyone you dont yet know. As for the location, it just so happens that in late September/early October the rut may well be happening. They will be gathering, thats for sure. And Autumn colours may well be showing in the trees, providing the backdrop. So meet in the North Car park on Sunday October 3rd at 3pm – that gives us plenty of time to wander round the park before retiring at dusk (6.40pm) or earlier to go visit one of the local pubs to continue chatting and maybe show some results.
Do note that the North Car Park is exactly that – its the carpark maybe a mile north of the main touristy NT car park at Petworth . Google tells me that the postcode is GU28 9LS . (NOT GU28 9LR, thats the main car park which you dont want)
Im reasonably sure you all know the park better than I, but for those who dont, expect a wide open space with grass pathways running through it. There are clumps of trees dotted around for some early Autumn colour. The deer tend to congregate near the road where there is more cover, and are more approachable there – but compared to, say, Bushey Park, they are a lot more timid. Long lenses are the order of the day.
If you are wondering about kit, bring whatever you want. If you are macro supremo, bring your macro. If you are a landscape expert, bring tripod and wide angles. As for me and the rest of us, my advice is to travel light; I’ll bring a camera and a long (100-400) lens. Walking boots are a very good idea – and wear suitable clothing for the time of year.
If you are interested in a breeze round Petworth Park with like minded individuals, do let me know that you are coming. My email address is andy_bracey@hotmail.com and my number is 07974 173345. Pop it in your phone now, believe me, at one point or other you will need to use it ….
The event will be cancelled only if the forecast is wet. If it does look to be wet I’ll circulate a cancellation notice, probably by email to those I know who are coming, the evening of the Thursday before.
Otherwise – See you there! 🙂

I have a passion for digital photography and have been making images with my camera now for many years and have never lost my enthusiasm. I love being able to be in control of the whole process, composing the shot, taking the shot, post processing the shot and finally printing it. Its my attempt at being creative and artistic which gives me much enjoyment and fulfilment. My work has been exhibited at many national and international exhibitions during the process of my working towards my photographic distinctions.

Development Group (Club and Intermediate)
2021-10-18 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
Planned Agenda for Development Group on Monday 18th October
This Session is going to be informative and as much fun as Linda and I can inject …… it centres around two major topics – Filters and Mounting images. The Filters bit is the serious bit – and there is a lot to get through. The Mounting bit could be a lot of fun – Linda will do a demo on how to measure, cut and assemble your prints in a mount, and then we will both follow by getting maybe a half dozen people to bring prints and frames and then cut mounts to suit during the session.
For now the Agenda will look something like this
. Small Print Competition
. Filters
. Printing (might get dropped depending on time)
. Mounting demo and practice
. Preparation for next Photowalk – West Wittering

See you there!

It was a particular pleasure to see a number of recent successful panels at Licentiate and Associate levels, and thanks to Sarah Nichol, Lynne and Jeff Owen for bringing those along.

At last we were also able to see work in progress in print form after our months looking online. Thanks especially to Janey Devine who is currently an RPS Assessor on the L panel as well as both Travel and Documentary and so is very well placed to advise on the recent changes to the assessment criteria. With John Bradshaw’s eagle eye on technical matters and his and Graham Sargent’s long experience as assessment panel members too, the group is very well served to support those looking to pursue the RPS Distinction routes.

Your can find notes from the meeting here https://www.dropbox.com/s/ga0tk5peinfm9az/RPS%20group%20introduction.pdf?dl=0 offering a general introduction to the different levels, and here https://www.dropbox.com/s/4zsgo2rff2tgfmr/RPS%20Distinctions%20Associateship.pdf?dl=0 more about the ARPS. The RPS has considerable information online, which you can find here https://rps.org/qualifications/.

We meet again on Tuesday 18th October, in the small hall at Tangmere Village Centre at 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start. You are welcome to come along and observe or bring work in progress and there will be further opportunities to see recent successful panels.

THERE ARE NO MEETINGS AT TANGMERE FROM SEPTEMBER TO DECEMBER 2021.
They say a photographer is either a picture taker or a picture maker and I am firmly in the picture makers’ club. While fully appreciating the “what you see is what you get” approach, I am much more interested in chasing an ever-elusive image that appears in my mind’s eye, an image that conveys my feelings and emotions, rather than remains a mere statement of fact. My favourite photography subjects are: flowers, still life, and also capturing my impressions when travelling.
Flowers and still life are my favourite photography subjects. Still life in particular is perfect for a perfectionist like me – no one fidgets or makes faces, no sudden gust of wind or some other quirk of ever-changing weather can spoil your shot. But, by the same token, you cannot count on something interesting that just happens all of a sudden – it is all up to you; the choices are infinite, and the final result is entirely in your own hands.
