Here, they explain the secrets behind their success<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>When was Launceston Camera Club founded?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Launceston Camera Club was founded in December 1976 with a membership of 12 and our honorary president, Dennis Madge, was a founder member of the club. Our membership averages between 35 and 40 and we try to cater for everyone from all walks of life, with a catchment area from north Cornwall to west Devon. As with many clubs, there is a shortage of younger members. We do have a few, but we would like to encourage more to come along and join us to gain experience from our more knowledgeable members \u2013 and they also have a great deal to teach us.<\/p>\n\t\t<div  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/04_Nigel_Watson-R8-travel.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"160169\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/04_Nigel_Watson-R8-travel.jpg\" alt=\"Nigel Watson penguins through a window\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">An unusual travel shot got Nigel Watson fourth place in round 8<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p><strong>How would you describe yourself as a club?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We are a small but very friendly bunch of enthusiastic photographers, who are willing to share our experience and knowledge with any new or old member. We have monthly summer outings around the coast or the moors of Devon and Cornwall.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What form do your meetings take?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We try to cover and encourage all aspects of photography throughout the year, consisting of practical evenings, before-and-after workshops, quiz nights, and arranging for lecturers to come along to show us their work and to give encouragement and advice. A couple of highlights this year were The Lone Kayaker with Rupert Kirkwood and Personal Projects by Glyn Dewis.<\/p>\n<p>We have eight competitions throughout the season, digital and print, set subjects and monochrome, and the finale is a grand slam at the end of the season. We have interclub battles with other clubs and we just have the joy of sharing one another\u2019s images. We also compete in regional and national competitions, encouraging club members to enter our own Cornwall Photographic Alliance competitions, the Western Counties Photographic and the (PAGB) Photographic Alliance of Great Britain. We do also have summer outings throughout the summer at various locations and purely for the social side.<\/p>\n\t\t<div  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 920px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Heather-Bodle-movement.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"160170\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Heather-Bodle-movement.jpg\" alt=\"Heather Bodle Launceston Camera Club black and white waterfall image\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">An atmospheric capture from Heather Bodle, which was shortlisted in round 6, Movement<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p><strong>What are the most popular photographic genres among your members?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think one of the reasons Launceston did so well in APOY\u2019s camera club challenge is because we have members who specialise in a wide range of subjects, including landscape, portraiture, wildlife, astro, water drop and one member that does fine art using only black &amp; white film. But the important thing is if any newer members want help, they know who to go to for help with that specific subject.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did lockdown affect you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lockdown was a struggle to start with, then we noticed on Facebook that other clubs were using Zoom \u2013 so we purchased it and were able to carry on with digital competitions. The sad part was we couldn\u2019t do print competitions. To keep us motivated, a member started fortnightly competitions on Facebook, where the winner of the previous subject chose the title for the next competition and was also the judge.<\/p>\n<p>We thought it would give the members who were unsure about judging images a chance to practise. Since returning to meetings at the club house, a number of our members have chosen not to attend in person for the moment, although they are still sending in digital images for competitions.<\/p>\n\t\t<div  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1044px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/05_Nick_Bodle-R4-landscapes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"160171\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/05_Nick_Bodle-R4-landscapes.jpg\" alt=\"Nick Bodle Launceston Camera Club\" width=\"1024\" height=\"547\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Nick Bodle achieved fifth spot in round 4, Landscapes<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p><strong>As a club, were you already experienced in entering and doing well in competitions before APOY?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We have had a few competition successes in the past but nothing as big as this! When Chris Robbins decided to enter round one, he suggested to the members that it would be worth going for the camera club challenge even though he knew we were punching above our weight (being a small club). Then he managed to get club secretary Hugh Letheren on board, and as soon as we got a few shortlisted images<br \/>\nunder our belts the whole club then started to get involved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which categories were you particularly confident about?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think round 10 (Close-ups) was a good one, as we have several members doing macro, and because we were top of the leaderboard by this time, nearly everyone was having a go!
