This is the WPS Annual Competition for Projected Images which is open to all members of the society and is a great chance to share your work with other club members.
The images will be presented and winners announced by this year’s competition judge at the meeting.
Hi all and welcome to 2022.
In terms of planning, we have some ideas and will be communicating those out to everyone once things are more finalised. Keep an eye out on this page as we will have some questions we would like everyone’s feedback on soon 
The traffic light system has thrown a bit of a spanner in the works and we are going to make sure that we do everything we can to keep all of our members safe and cater to their level of comfort in socialising and spending time close to others.
Background
The Club has been concerned that users of its facility adopt appropriate safety protocols to ensure the safety of all users and to prevent the transmission of the Covid 19 virus.
The concept of a suitable protocol was outlined at the Society AGM on 13 November 2021 and endorsed by a resolution of the meeting.
Members of the Wellington Photographic Society are invited to attend the Annual General Meeting: 7.00 pm 11 November 2021 to be held both in-person at the Tararua Tramping Club and online via Zoom.
Agenda:
Will be confirmed closer to the date
Unfortunately, we have decided to postpone our AGM. Due to the current level 4 lockdown, the uncertainty around its possible extension and to look after our members, friends and whanau, we’ve made the decision to postpone our 2021 AGM this Thursday.
Trenna Packer entries close on 15 May 2021
The Society is seeking a range of Nature images from members in order to enter the Trenna Packer Interclub competition again this year. We are required to compile a set of six projected images on the topic of New Zealand Nature with the limitation that only one image in the set can be entered by anyone member.
We are back after a small hiatus with a new issue!
Inside this issue, you’ll find articles on Personal photography projects, an interview with WPS member Fred Wotton, who has been an active photographer for 72 years, Some images from our recent Mobile Competition, a review of one of Canon’s last 35mm SLR’s the EOS-3 among other great articles.
We hope you enjoy this month’s magazine.
A question we get asked a lot is why should you join a camera club, society or organisation. With social media being such a fundamental part of any growing photographers education these days, camera clubs can seem like a remnant of older generations.
Modern camera clubs have thankfully evolved somewhat with the times and accessibility of photography. These days you should be able to find something to suits your personal needs, whether you are a seasoned photographer or just starting out with your smartphone. Either way, if you have an interest in photography there are many good reasons to think about joining a camera club.

Closing Date for Entries: On or before 25 March (midnight)
For 2021 we are once again looking to celebrate new and emerging forms of photography with a Mobile Photography Competition. This competition aims to give more opportunities to photographers on the go. We are looking for new and different approaches to photography and images showing the vision possible with a modern smartphone. With this competition running during February, it’s our chance to help celebrate the New Zealand Summer and our Beautiful city with the camera you always have with you, your smartphone!
