These photographs are the work of members of the Housatonic Camera Club. Members from communities in the tri-state area (Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York) meet to share their love of photography, their experiences, travels, and expertise, and to educate one another and the public. Members -- beginners, advanced amateurs, and professionals -- work in prints, film, digital, color, and black & white mediums.
The Housatonic Camera Club meets usually the third Tuesday of the month from September through May at Noble Horizons in Salisbury, CT . The Club also offers annual programs that are open to the general public. These programs range from exhibits and slide shows to fieldtrips and workshops teaching the basics of photography to cutting edge technology and techniques. In the last two years HCC exhibitions include the Douglas Library in Canaan, CT; the Salisbury Bank and Trust in Lakeville, CT; the Moviehouse Gallery in Millerton, NY; the Star Grill Gallery in Millbrook, NY; and Noble Horizons.
As part of the New England Camera Club Council (NECCC) and Photographic Society of America (PSA), three times a year members are encouraged to submit prints for competition within the HCC. Those chosen to go on to the next level of competition are sent to the NECCC and PSA for consideration with photographs from almost 90 other member camera clubs throughout New England.
