Alice Black Award – November 2019 – “Under the Gateway” by Roberta Edwards
To perpetuate the memory of our late member Alice Black, the club has introduced the ‘Alice Black Memorial Trophy’ to be contested each year on a perpetual basis.
At each month’s Aggregate Competition the judge will select an image from all those entered as the monthly Alice Black Image – they will use their own criteria to select the image regardless of the score given. All images submitted in the Aggregate Competition have the potential to become a possible winner of the Trophy as there is no restriction on the grade of the entrant or the medium in which the image is presented.
For November 2019 the Alice Black has been awarded to Roberta Edwards for her image “Under the Gateway”. This image was entered in the B Grade Open Digital section.

TPS Club Meeting – 12 November 2019
Our next club meeting is at 7:00pm on Tuesday, 12th November 2019. This month the Set Subject is “Conceptual”. We have had 114 images submitted this month. The images will be judged using our club members panel system.
We look forward to catching up with you all this evening.
The November 2019 Cable Release can now be downloaded by clicking on the download button:
And don’t forget that entries for our December 2019 competition must be uploaded by 11:59pm on the 12th November 2019. The Set Subject for this month is “Rust”. The guideline for this competition is “The red or orange coating that forms on the surface of iron when exposed to air and moisture. Rusting leads to corrosion and destruction of the object. It is any film or coating on metal caused by oxidation.
Rust photography can include a whole object or part of an object that is rusted or rusting. It can also include macro images of rusted items and surfaces.
Rust can be used to describe things that are reddish-brown in colour
Rust is a disease which affects plants. It is caused by a fungus.

Skills Night – 22 October 2019
Our next TPS Skills Night is on Tuesday, 22 October 2019 at 7:00pm.
Mick Jones will be known to many club members for his action motor sports photography and character portraits, especially in the “man-cave” genre. Mick has consented to be our guest presenter at this Skills Night session at De Molay House. He has also provided a set of notes available by clicking on the download button below:
For this month the Image Challenge is “Clocks”. Please send up to five images for this Challenge, together with up to five images for the Field Day and five for the Favourites to be included in the Skills Night audio-visual to me at graham_harris@westnet.com.au by 6:00pm on Monday 21st October 2019.
Next month our field day will be at the Interclub Go Kart Championship at Greer Park, just off Postman’s Ridge Rd held 23 and 24 November.
While the emphasis will be on spinning wheels and tracking karts through the Lens ( they move quicker than you might think), there is a human aspect to these events.
Plenty of opportunities to photograph the Dads and family helpers getting cars ready, kids donning helmets like knights going into battle, and the looks of triumph and disappointment.

For October 2019 the Alice Black has been awarded to Robert Fox for his image “All quiet in the Harbour”. This image was entered in the B Grade Open Digital section. The judges complimented the lighting conditions under which this image was shot and the balance created by including the boat and full reflection at the left of the frame.
