Hi Folks,

OK, so I joined the local South Eastern Connecticut Camera Club (yeah, yeah, yeah, I know). Anyway, I was drawn into helping the folks organize some speakers, so it got me thinking .... what an opportunity to get traditional film photography speakers!

So, I'm looking for folks who can speak on and/or demonstrate - nothing too fancy - on the following traditional film and hybrid topics:

Alternative processes
Polaroid transfers
Scanning film - how to, what to look for to get best results, B&W versus colour scanning, film types
Toy cameras - different types, types of results, where to get, etc...
Historical cameras - antiques
Large format cameras - what are they, brands, where to get them, resources
Film and paper coating - maybe even a talk on film making process
Environmentaly friendly darkroomsAlso other tiopics such as:

Astronomy photography
Travel photography
Studio photography
Underwater photography
Lighting
Flash photography
Night / Twilight photography
Framing for galleries, gifts and home
Matting and mounting
Photography websites - make your own, software, etc...
Portfolios
Composition, style, "rules", colour, balance, etc...
Photography history
Photography genresPretty much anything associated with photography.

The club meetings are twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays, except December, June, July, August and holidays and meets at the Jordan Firehouse near Waterford/New London, CT at 7pm.

If you're interested in being a speaker or know of someone, send me a private message (PM).

Regards, Art.

I just need roundtrip airfare, a room at the Westin, a per diem and a modest honorarium and I'm there. I'm happy to do my part. :p

Now if the situations were reversed...Art "would" be there!
