New season for Athlone Photography Club

Commencing on Wednesday September 6 at 7.30pm at Abbey Road Artists' Studio, Athlone Photography Club will begin a busy schedule of talks, walks, and model shooting guaranteed to attract new members as the club celebrates its tenth anniversary.

There are many exciting opportunities for new and existing members with an introductory course for beginners in early September, and planned landscape excursions at the end of each month where amateur photographers can be paired off with more seasoned professionals to improve their skills in a relaxed environment.

There are a variety of topics planned throughout the year including a Autumn model shoot on September 24 which will also focus on the much-loved Halloween themed photoshoot.

Throughout the year, you can enjoy opportunities to improve your photography in an encouraging environment with tips and talks on Landscape, Portrait, Creative, Sport and Macro photography. There are also club challenges and national competitions to enter so you won’t want to miss out on the variety of discussions and learning opportunities planned for the new season, as the club celebrates ten years making memories in Athlone.
