May 2026 – Light and Shadow
Light is a requirement for photography, but where there is light there is shadow. Capture an image where both of these elements play an important role — an image where light and shadow seem to vie for attention.

At Projected Image Night, members view and discuss digital images projected on a screen. Members submit images in advance by email.

Both images matching the monthly theme (see above) and other out-of-theme images can be shown. Please see this page for details on Projected Image Night.

At print night, members bring in printed images for discussion. They can be made by a digital camera or from film, printed digitally or in the darkroom, and are mounted to a firm, lightweight backing such as posterboard. Please see this page for details on print night.
