For this competition a new judging system was tried and it worked very well as it got all members present involved and gave them a chance to become judges, photographic only, for a few minutes.

Next week is a members night for non distinction holders who will be asked to bring a selection of their best prints for consideration for the Clubs National Shield Panel inter club competition to be held in Carlow on November 10th and 11th next.

The Clubs beginners classes get under way this Tuesday evening 9th October at 8.00pm in room SR14, GMIT, Castlebar, we look forward to a good attendance and very informative sessions with the emphasis on digital photography.
