Discovering Hobsons Bay

On Sunday 27th August 15 Club members met at the Newport Substation to commence our Exploring Hobsons Bay photo shoot. 

Members started the day taking shots around the Substation and adjacent Newport railway station area before moving to the Williamstown foreshore near the end of Stevedore Street. City scapes and boats were all the go with some of the group venturing out to the end of Ferguson Street Pier for a different view of the city.

Our final stop for the day was the Kororoit Creek historic fishing village at the end of Maddox Road in Altona. We were hoping for some interesting bird shots but birds were few and far between. The birds that were there were more intent on sleeping than providing us with nice birds in flight shots. Although the birds didn’t play ball, we all enjoyed each other’s company with lots of fun, laughter and good conversation.

Judging: End of Year Awards & Dinner

Join us for a night of fun as we award our winners from the year. Awards are given for aggregate point winners and for the images of the year.

For the new members, we have spit roasted meats and salads brought into the Clubrooms. We have found that this works really well as it gives members a chance to chat prior to the EOY Awards presentations. You can bring along some wine/beer and some of the members bring a dessert to share.

Price for the meal is $18.00, please pay into our bank account by November 22nd, with your member number and name as reference: eg: 013Malbon
