Swinton Photography Club

What does the Swinton photography club get up to in Greater Manchester?

If you live in or around the area of Swinton and are interested in taking pictures then you should come along to the Swinton photography club.

At the Swinton photography club we will chat and chat about taking photographs until we are blue in the face! We will chat about photographs that you have taken and other members of the club have taken. We will of course take images and improve on images using a range of software packages such as Photoshop, Auto FX, and Microsoft Photo Editor . You will learn how to take better photographs and use your photographic equipment to prepare a better photo. You will meet similar minded people who have an inquiring eye for detail and a love for photography.

There is a small fee for joining the club but competitions will be free for everybody to enter.

We commonly have competitions all through the year as seasons change and events happen during the calendar year. We have a photographic exhibition each year to showcase our efforts.

By joining a club it should vastly improve your photography skills where you should be able to make a good livelihood from your hobby if this is what you would like to do in the future. Also the Swinton photography club will have it's own website with links to your own website which can help your web traffic no end as well as maybe get you new customers if you have any products or services to offer.
