Welcome to the Milpitas Camera Club!
We are a club of like-minded photographers interested in a wide variety of photography.
We get together to discuss artistic and technical topics, share images, learn new techniques and skills, take field trips and gather socially.
Potential members, of any skill level, are encouraged to attend one of
the meetings and get to know some of the wonderful people who make up the Milptias Camera Club.
Monthly meetings:
The meetings have three parts: a business meeting, a refreshment social,
and a program session during which members' photos are presented for positive and creative critique,
or an invited speaker demonstrates technique.
Demonstrations:
Recent demonstrations have included an overview of using the histogram
on a digital camera for exposure control. Another was a lecture and demonstration on various methods of making and
using a pin hole camera.
Regional Photography Competition:
The MCC is part of the Mid-Peninsula Photographic Alliance (MPPA -
http://www.pacamera.com/mppa/) which makes our
members eligible to participate in regional competitions.
Photography field trips:
Some recent field trips have been to Death Valley, Point Lobos,
Mendocino Coast, Alcatraz at night and Mono Lake/Eastern Sierra.
These field trips are always fun.
An annual exhibition/show of photographs taken by Club members:
This event is sponsored by the City of Milpitas. Recently we had a one-month-long
exhibit at the Milpitas Phantom Gallery.
An annual barbeque:
The 2005-2006-2007 barbeques, held at local parks, were pot lucks with lots of
delicious food and delectable desserts.
