Welcome to Charlottesville Camera Club

Next meeting

Thursday, April 9, 2026 - 6:45pm to 8:00pm

Theme: Reflections

Reflections offer opportunities to create symmetry, abstraction, depth, and visual interest in your photos. For this assignment, use natural or artificial reflective surfaces to capture scenes creatively. Reflective surfaces can include more than just water. Experiment with windows, mirrors and metallic surfaces. Look for symmetrical reflections or highly distorted ones; try different perspectives to create something unusual. 

Corey Hilz is our judge this month. Corey is enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge. He helps others improve their photography through group and private instruction. Corey's instruction enables photographers to improve their images technically and artistically. Corey is a published author, and his work is seen in magazines, books, calendars, and catalogs. His photographs are also found in exhibits and private collections. Corey has written six books, including two books on digital workflow and the first book dedicated to Lensbaby. Corey goes beyond the documentary image, looking for fresh perspectives and the decisive moment. He strives to share the beauty of a destination you’ve never seen, as well as a new view on the familiar.

Photo Review

Workshop

Saturday, April 4, 2026 - 3:45pm to 5:30pm

Online Zoom Meeting - Refer to Meeting Announcement

Here’s your opportunity to get friendly feedback on your photos from your fellow club members. Do you want to learn more about the basics of taking a good photo? Are you having some difficulty getting the “look” you want with lighting and composition? Want to do better in our competitions and juried exhibits? Or do you just want to show us what you've been shooting lately?

Whatever your level of experience or ability, you’ll find these casual and supportive meetings helpful—and just plain fun! You’ll get the most from these meetings by posting your own photos. But of course you’re welcome to just show up and observe the photos posted by others.

If you’d like to show us your photos, upload up to two JPEGs (sized to about 2000 pixels on the longest side) to the current photo review entry on the PhotoContest Pro website (www.photocontestpro.com). If you'd like to show us "before editing" and "after editing" versions of a photo, you can upload both.

The deadline is always midnight before the meeting. (If you need help with uploading, check out the information available on the CCC website under Competition Info, or contact Gerry Bishop via email.)
