New Club Photography
Project begins July 6th
Now that our first 30 Day Challenge has come to a close as of the 30th day of June we’re moving on to our next group photography project. Starting on July 6th, 2009 (Monday) and running for a week at a time we will post a location that everyone who wants to participate will have to photograph at during that week. You can shoot something at this location daily if you want and upload it to the group project or you can do it once during the week. You can photograph anything at the location inside or out as long as it is at the group photo project site. In addition if you want you can buddy up with someone and go together to shoot. Click Here for Full Details
The second Worldwide Photo Walk will be Saturday July 18, 2009. Madisonville was approved to host one of the Photo Walks and we are one of two in Kentucky so far. The space is limited to 50 people only so if you’re interested in participating please sign-up soon.

Please check the website: http://worldwidephotowalk.com/madisonville-ky-usa/

If you are interested in joining us, please do register. Rennan Quijano is the walk leader and may be contacted via the site.

We're now on Facebook!

Our club has extended it web presence by setting our photography club up as a group on the popular Facebook social networking site. We have found that the club already has many of it’s current membership on the service and feel that this addition to our club’s web presence will further enhance members participation in club activities.

Even with our other web locations we feel that this will add another dimension to our members furthering their photographic skills. It’s easy to post to what’s referred to as the “Wall” which is a location where all members of the group will be able to view anytime they login to Facebook and even have the option of getting an email alert when you post something to the “Wall” or the groups Gallery or Video section along with many other things.

It’s also a great way of keeping up with what our members are doing on a day to day, hour to hour or even minute to minute basis if they want to update their status that often. I myself update my daily activities several times a day letting folks know what I’m up to from a photographic standpoint among other things. You can also easily leave messages for each other (private or otherwise) or do a live chat with other members online at the moment you are.

If you are on Facebook browse on over to the club’s group and request to join. As with our other website locations this will be for club members only so each request to join will have to be approved.

The link for the group is: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=98962615167

If you’re not already a member of Facebook you will be given the opportunity to sign up when you visit the link as you won’t be able to view the group unless you are signed into Facebook. I joined a few weeks ago and have found it to be a very refreshing way to keep up with what my friends, family and co-workers are doing.

If you’re concerned about your privacy, Facebook gives you the option of only allowing people you select and approve as “Friends” to see your postings and information, plus the ability to set how you are emailed either by the group or Facebook.
