The <strong>2015</strong>-16 session of PCPC commences on Thursday 3rd <strong>September</strong>.<br />
The Club meets on Thursday evenings, 7.30pm until 10pm from <strong>September</strong><br />
through to the end of April. Meetings take place at the William McMaster<br />
Community Centre, Donaldson Drive, Renfrew, PA4 8LX.<br />
Over the coming months we will be providing more details of what’s on<br />
during the <strong>2015</strong>/16 season. If you have an interest in photography, at any<br />
level, please do come along to our informal meetings. We are a friendly<br />
group of enthusiasts with a broad spectrum of experience whose interest is<br />
in sharing and improving their photographic skills.<br />
The images this month are a selection from previous competitions. The<br />
first image is by Gary Ramanathan of Wemyss Bay Station, prior to the<br />
refurbishment that is currently underway. The second image is by John<br />
Davies of the timber ponds near Langbank and the third image is by<br />
Campbell Watson of a scene at Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park.<br />
The print competition topic for <strong>September</strong> 14th meeting is “Seaside<br />
Architecture”.<br />
Membership of the club is only £10 for the first year. If you wish to find out<br />

As ever, a quality, interesting, informative and varied syllabus has been<br />
compiled with a balance of presentations and competitions encompassing<br />
all popular aspects of photography. Our wide-ranging lecture programme<br />
this year includes photojournalism, press photography and underwater<br />
photography as well as landscapes and travelogues from Bhutan to Chile.<br />
As befits such a comprehensive programme, our lecturers this year also<br />
come from far and near. We will be exploring creative photography with<br />
London-based photographer Andi Edan and learning about farming with<br />
wildlife with Andrew Parsons from Newark. Nearer to home, we will be taking<br />
a close look at the Nevis area with renowned hill walker and photographer<br />
Alex Gillespie from Fort William and even travelling back in time to the<br />
1960s with Tom Doherty for a look at Glasgow’s people and places as seen<br />
through the lens of the late Eric Watt.<br />
There are also two Teach-ins per month <strong>September</strong> to April. During the<br />
summer months outings are arranged for every Thursday evening and also<br />
to special events (some images included). Perhaps most of all there is the<br />
friendly camaraderie of like minded enthusiasts.<br />
New members and visitors are assured of a warm welcome. For information<br />
and details of the coming session please refer to www.paisleycolour.co.uk
