I got talking to a chap who turned out to be the then Chairman, Steve Bailey, who explained the club\u2019s ethos and I decided to give it a go. I encouraged my wife to join me. I took on the role of Treasurer after a year and am now Vice Chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My interest in photography was started by my father who did his own developing and printing in an improvised darkroom in our attic. This gave me a good grounding in the basics of early photography. I now have a few digital cameras for different purposes, in particular a lightweight Olympus Mirrorless is just what I need as a lightweight holiday camera but my favourite is now an Olympus OM-1 with a plethora of lenses. The MFT format gives many advantages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My interest is mainly in Landscape photography but being a member of CCC has got me trying many different genres with Macro now becoming a firm favourite. The Club competitions are fun and you learn so much from seeing other people\u2019s work. I would encourage anyone with an interest in photography to join and build their knowledge in a friendly helpful way<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PS. As you can see from my photo I love seafood!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I joined Croxley Camera Club in 2017 after dropping in to their stand at the Croxley Revels and was very impressed by the photographs on show.
