A Shared passion for Photography<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n

Whether you\u2019re new to photography or looking to extend your skills, you\u2019ll find plenty to interest and stimulate you at a premier photographic club. Abington Camera Club members create powerful pictures. Some shoot landscapes, others specialise in portraits or urban abstracts. Many Abington CC photographers have won awards or achieved RPS distinctions. All enjoy the support, enthusiasm and inspiration of belonging to our friendly club. We hope that you might enjoy it too. We have a comprehensive programme of talks, digital workshops, competitions and practical evenings. Take a look around our website, contact one of the committee members, or come along to the Abington Community Centre on any Monday night between September and June by 7-30 pm to see for yourself\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2026and feel free to bring some of your pictures!<\/span><\/p>\n

Photography Today<\/span><\/span><\/h5>\n

Photography has never been more popular than it is today with the advent of digital adding an immediacy that was previously lacking\u00a0Images are produced in vast amounts every day but higher quantity does not automatically mean higher quality.\u00a0Finding out how to compose and take a good picture and get the best out of a file or film can be a hit and miss affair without any help.<\/span><\/p>\n

Help at Hand<\/span><\/h5>\n

That is why we invite expert photographers to show us their pictures, talk about them and share their secrets.\u00a0Such exposure to creative ideas can only serve to bring out the best in what we produce ourselves.\u00a0Positive feedback from fellow members provides further guidance and competition spurs us on.\u00a0Our aim through our programme is to encourage and enable all of our members to reach their full potential.<\/span><\/p>\n
