Langbank Camera Club<br />

The club’s first meeting of the <strong>2015</strong>/16 session will be held on Monday 14th<br />

<strong>September</strong> at 7.30pm in the Langbank Church halls.<br />

Paisley Colour Photographic Club<br />

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 />

more about camera club please visit our website: www.langbankcameraclub.<br />

weebly.com or contact Derrick McPherson at langbankcc1@gmail.com with<br />

your enquiries.<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
