Future Presentations and Events

As part of our programme SBACC hosts evenings where we invite well known and recognised photographers to our hall to give us a presentation.  These evenings are always popular.  We open our doors up on these evenings to non-members who may wish to see the speaker.  Ticket prices are £7.50 per adult and £2.50 per child (Under 16).

Anyone wishing to buy a ticket should contact our Treasurer Mat Philips at sbacc.treasurer@gmail.com 

End of Year - Print Exhibition

To round the season off SBACC will once again invite all members to bring a few of their prints to the hall for display to other members. These will be displayed around the hall on tables which will allow members to socialise and view the images throughout the evening.

There is no theme, and there are no restrictions regarding size and / or framing.  

This is an ideal opportunity to discuss printing techniques with those club members who are very proficient in this art. 

THE CLUB WILL BE CLOSED FOR OUR SUMMER RECESS BETWEEN 27TH MAY AND 8TH SEPTEMBER.  DURING THIS PERIOD THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PHOTOSHOOTS PLANNED.  DETAILS OF THESE CAN BE FOUND AT Photoshoots 2026

Photoshoots

A full programme of photoshoots throughout the year is currently being organised.  A full copy of the years programme of photoshoots can be found at Photoshoots 2026

Recent Club Meetings and Outings

SBACC End of Year / Open Competition

On 12th May members of SBACC submitted images for our End of Year / Open Competition.  As always the standard of images shown was extremely high.  With 44 Digital Images and 7 prints on display the judge Janet Miles had a very difficult task in identifying the images to receive awards.

Full results can be found at Competitions

Westcountry Wildlife Photography Centre

On 9th May a group of 12 members attended the Westcountry Wildlife Photography Centre at Lifton, Devon.

During the visit they were treated to an opportunity to get close to and to photograph several species of animal.  This was a hugely enjoyable day during which every participant captured some incredible images.

The experience will be repeated again on 27th June with another group attending the venue.

A selection of images can be found at Photoshoot Galleries

Stephen and Helen Jones - Life In Prints

On 28th April SBACC hosted a presentation by Stephen and Helen Jones entitled Life In Prints

Stephen and Helen are two active local photographers and are members of Dorchester Camera Club.

During the evening they showed many prints of their event and street photography which were very well appreciated by the members that were present.

Workshops

Periodically we will run workshops for the development of our members.

At this time we do not have anything planned as we are concentrating on skills in the field through our programme of photoshoots.
