Hi everyone
Just a quick heads up.
Our November meeting has been moved back a week to Tuesday 15th in Newcastle and simulcast on zoom if you cannot make the venue.
Please think about Our December meeting/Xmas get-together. I imagine we want to go somewhere we may/ will need to book soon. Any suggestions are welcome.
Hope to see you on the 15th, Ian

August Competition – Underwater Portrait – definition
Underwater Portrait – definition
Like other types of portraiture, the focus of the photograph is the person’s or creature’s face, although the entire body and the background may be included (environmental portrait). An underwater portrait includes images of a single animal/creature/person underwater, or a small group of creatures/people, including fish, sharks, sea lions, octopus, nudibranchs, etc in which the face and expression are predominant, and the underwater portrait subject should comprise at least 50% of the image area. A portrait image usually focuses on a single subject and shows their personality.
Images can be presented in portrait or landscape orientation.
