The Tamworth Camera Club is made up of people who enjoy the art of photography. We have members from all walks of life and varying experience in photography. You can shoot film or digital, SLR or compact, everyone is welcome.
The idea of the club is to exchange ideas, knowledge, techniques and to help each other become the best photographer that you can be. Tamworth Camera Club holds monthly training nights, monthly photographic competitions and organised outings.
We invite you to join us. There are no special requirements for you to join the Club, just an interest in photography and the desire to learn more about it. Please contact us if you would like to know more or just come along to our next monthly Meeting. The Club meets on the first & fourth Tuesday of each month (Feb – Nov) at West’s Diggers Club, Kable Ave, Tamworth NSW 2340.

Backlit Photography refers to photographs taken with a strong light background, with or without sunlight or artificial lights behind your subject.
It can be useful in any genre of photography to enhance and or add artistic flair to your photography.
This training is a hands on approach so bring your camera and lenses and maybe learn something new. A tripod may be useful once it gets dark.
