Call of the Wild - Scottish Landscapes

Our heartfelt thanks to Robert Quig, a founder member of Kilmaurs Photographic Club for sharing his exceptional portfolio of images depicting the landscapes of his native country, centred around his country home in Invergarry.  Images covered a vast range of diverse locations from literally on his doorstep to the inner hebrides, western isles, Glen Coe, the Trossachs and beyond.  A defining feature of these photographs is their ability to convey vast, wild spaces, and Robert explained how he sometimes uses a small focal point such as a lone tree or walker to help emphasise the scale of the surrounding area. Snow, mist and transient, dramatic sunbeams are used creatively to express a seemingly endless variety of effects in the ever changing landscape, literally putting wild Scotland in a new light.

Scarecrow Festival

We were at the Bothwell Scarecrow Festival – Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September.

Hamilton Camera Club is with The National Lottery.

Hamilton Camera Club are celebrating as we have been awarded £1200 of National Lottery funding to support us to continue to operate within the local community.

The new funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, which distributes money raised by National Lottery players for good causes and is the largest community funder in the UK, will see the club maintain its ongoing programme providing somewhere for local people to meet and interact with other while sharing their interests. Our meetings are on Thursday evenings from Sept to Apr in Hamilton Old Parish Church halls and new members are welcome at any time. If you have an interest in photography and would like to learn and share your hobby, please come and join us.
