Hall Meeting – Thackery Print Competition
George Robertson will be our judge for the evening where we get to hear exactly what he thinks of the print entries submitted, both Colour and Mono. We have 32, a maximum of two per author per section, with a wide variety of genres. Plenty for our judge to get his teeth into who will, as usual, be providing valuable feedback on all the submissions with just three rising to the top placings, 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
Good luck to all the entered.

Hall Meeting – Practical Night
This will be our third and final Practical event of this season and is being dedicated to Post Processing. The hall will be set up with several workstations, all working on their own specific topic, dictated by the input received from members prior to the night. Each station master will provide help with technique specific to the topic but will also be available to assist with any other processing question that members may ask on the evening. Through demonstration and hands-on practical learning, the aim is to provide members with help, advise and tips to develop their own Post Processing skills.

Zoom Event – External Speaker, Stan Farrow
Stan will present to us his talk on ‘Abstract Photography’.
Stan describes this presentation as a little bit different in style to his other photographic talks. It discusses why photographers should consider doing abstract work, and how this might have a spin-off into their other day-to-day photographic work. The presentation includes a discussion of what abstract art is, and whether there is truly such a thing as abstract photography. It makes comparisons between abstract art and abstract photography.
Stan will also offer us suggestions about how to create our own abstract images using some simple techniques that possibly haven’t occurred to us before. This includes ideas about what to photograph and will give us some examples and ideas to try out for ourselves.
26th March 2026
Our last meeting of March will be a two-part event, with the Creative Digital Competition sharing the evening with a Foundation Member focused activity.
The Creative Digital Competition is a re-scheduled event from earlier in the season. We have 26 creative images to be judged by the audience on the night, ranging from relatively simple, but unusual, post-processing effects to quite complex composite imagery.
For the second half of the evening we will hold a Foundation Member focused event which will consist of our Foundation members presenting some of their work, giving us some insight into the 'Why' and 'How' and, should they request it, taking feedback from the audience. As always Kinross Camera Club likes to ensure that the beginners and less experienced members get the opportunity to shine and develop their skills.
Our camera club welcomes all abilities from seasoned photographers to those with no or little experience. If you have an interest in taking photos and would like to learn how to improve your photography, whether you use a smartphone or a fancy camera, you will be made very welcome. We run a variety of weekly events including practical evenings, talks and competitions. So please get in touch if you would like to come along to a meeting just for a taster to see if it is for you.
