Welcome to Charlottesville Camera Club

Next meeting

Thursday, September 10, 2026 - 6:45pm to 8:00pm

The judge is Jurgen Lobert

Theme: Night Photography

Any photo of any subject taken outdoors after sunset to before sunrise. Thus, no sunsets or sunrises. Try to capture something interesting about the nighttime in some way: a lonely person standing under a streetlight, a busy intersection with streaks of headlights and taillights, people around a table at an outdoor café, an old building under a dark sky with light shining from the windows. “Blue hour” and Milky Way photos will qualify, but why not try for something less common?

Online Zoom Meeting - Refer to Meeting Announcement

Got some photos you'd like to share with your fellow members? Want some helpful suggestions on how to improve your photography skills? Just want to see what others in the club are shooting these days, and how they're using editing software to optimize their photos? Then our photo review sessions are a great place to spend some time.

If you haven't yet joined us in these Zoom gatherings, you should at least give it a try. Just show up and see what you think. Then, if you decide you want to show some of your own photos, go to the CCC website (www.cvillecameraclub.org) and click on Competition Info > Uploading in the left-side column for more information. (Don't worry: The photo reviews are not at all about competition!)

In anticipation of the September competition's assigned theme, and following Arik Gorban's presentation last month, we will be heading to downtown C'ville to put some of what we've learned into practice. 

For those of you who already know how to make successful night photos, this will be an opportunity to get together with your fellow members and have some fun. For those of you who are just learning this photographic genre, your more experienced fellow members will be there to help you.

Presentation: YOUR Favorite Photo Goofs--and How to Avoid or Fix Them

Workshop

Tuesday, September 15, 2026 - 6:45pm to 8:00pm

Online Zoom Meeting - Refer to Meeting Announcement

Like zombies, they refuse to die, popping up over and over again during our photo reviews and competitions. Yes, we're talking about some all-too-common goofs that everyone serious about improving their photography should not be making.

Of course, if you’re not making mistakes, you’re probably stuck in a rut and aren’t growing as a photographer. But some goofs don’t happen from trying new things. Rather, they keep appearing because you may not be noticing them or know how to avoid or fix them.

So, in this presentation, we'll be reviewing some easy remedies for your favorite goofs!
