O S C C Friendship Through Photography G T C C C One of the
best friends we have is the Greater Toronto Council of Camera Clubs. This group is made up of representatives
from camera clubs in the GTA and they carry on three services on behalf of
the clubs, two of which we find very valuable. The
first of these is their catalog of presenters. It would be a horrendous task to develop
our program every year without this help.
This catalog identifies hundreds of presentations which are available
to us and in most cases it is a matter of making final arrangements with the
speaker. The
second service is the annual competition, held in the spring. This gives us an opportunity to compare our
skills with some of the very best photographers in the world - and sometimes
we surprise ourselves. The
third service is that they run a training program for judges. Since our club is intended to be more
social than competitive we don’t use formal judging, relying rather on the
instincts of our members. Take the
link over to the GTCCC and find out about it and about other camera clubs in
the area. |
