Coming Events
Thanks to Eric Eggley for his wonderful presentation on portrait photography and lighting. I know our members enjoyed it. We will list the equipment he used in the near future if you are interested in adding it to your photography gear. Also, a big thanks to member Ed Peters for volunteering to be the model.
Judging: Entries have closed for the #3 competition. Members can start judging on January 15 to January 24. Please take the time to vote. The other members are counting on you to use your best judgement. Look for the images with that “WOW” factor and score them the highest. Be sure to save your votes and to vote for all levels in all divisions. Enjoy the eye candy.

FYI - You can view the results of TCC contests by clicking on the Competition drop-down and choosing Competition Results. All TCC competition results are posted the day after the presentation at club. As the page defaults to just the awarded images, you can also click on "display all images" to see all images that were entered in the competitions but did not get an award. You can also choose the GDCCC results, which shows all the great images from all the clubs in the consortium and this is very inspirational.
