Description
Welcome to my Photography Club.
This is an online photo club that is all about learning through monthly challenges. There is no joining fee but there is a fee to take part in each months challenge. You are free to dip in and out as you see fit and only take part in the months that appeal to you.
Each challenge comes with a set of notes telling you about the challenge and giving you some useful information about how to approach it. The challenge will change every month and will be available to buy on the first day of each month. Participants will be encouraged to share their images on my Facebook page ‘Photographing Suffolk’
On the last Wednesday of every month I will hold a Zoom session with all participants where we will discuss the challenge, how we approached it and how we processed our images afterwards. We will be able to look at everyones images and discuss what worked and what didn’t.
The January edition of the challenge is now available to book. Each monthly challenge costs £10 for which you will get a full set of challenge notes, access to Photographing Suffolk on Facebook and an invitation to the January Zoom session which will take place between 7pm – 8.30pm on Wednesday 25th January.

About January’s challenge.
The first monthly challenge is all about Creativity focusing on 4 separate creative techniques:
Motion blur, Bokeh, ICM and Multiple Exposure. We will be looking at the work of other creative photographers including Glenys Garnet, Charlotte Bellemy and Sandra Bartocha.
The challenge will be to produce one image using one or a combination of two of these techniques.
