Notes from 12th Jun 2005
[posted at 10:00 GMT]    

It is already Monday, but I had no time yesterday and I think this is quite interesting. So Sunday we went to take a look at local photo club annual exposition in culture house. This Amateur photo club is making quite a noise in local media and in our village itself. I saw their exhibition two years ago and some photos were quite nice. Those were actually work of one man. This year I was walking between them and saw again same pictures of nice flowers and mushrooms, sometimes nice photos of mountains or exotic places. But all of them they look like photos from nice calendar, but they didn't tell me much further. I think I will get bored in few days if I put them on wall. Please do not take this arrogant view, but I do not feel very good about photo clubs. Most of them are pretty bad. I saw work and people in few photo clubs around and none of them really say anything to me. I believe that photography need mostly individual approach and only club with few members who are very open for discussion and open view can be useful. But those are probably not clubs but group of friends.
To be correct to our local photo club there was one man whose picture were above average and which I liked.
