Golden successes for Wexford Camera Club

- By MARIA PEPPER

Members of Wexford Camera Club scored a series of successes in Irish Photograph­ic Federation competitio­ns and fellowship­s. Vladimir Morozov was awarded his first Gold Medal after entering an image titled ‘Fall’ in the IPF’s Photograph­er of the Year competitio­n and winning out over entries from all over the country.

Marie Phelan presented a body of work to the Irish Photograph­ic Federation and gained a Fellowship distinctio­n for 20 submitted images, representi­ng the first award at this level for the club.

Kenny Goodison presented a body of work to the Federatiio­n and gained a Licentiate Distinctio­n for 10 submitted images. Wexford Camera Club guides and supports members to achieve distinctio­ns which are demanding at all levels.

Meetings are suspended during the current crisis but the club is still in business operating online for now.

‘Members are enjoying their photograph­y as a wonderful way to benefit from the great outdoors when the need to be outside is greater than ever - keeping a physical distance of course. Not only outdoors, a great hobby to work on indoors too’, said Marie Phelan.

Wexford Camera club welcomes new members whatever their level, style of photograph­y, or type of camera.

When restrictio­ns are lifted, members will meet every second Monday at 8 p.m. in Wexford Harbour Boat and Tennis Club. Find the club online at www.wexfordcam­eraclub.ie or on facebook.
