Stretch your Photography to the limits
The Guernsey Photographic Club (GPC) was founded in 1953. The Club has always tried to get involved in the widest range of photography rather than concentrating on a single aspect. 2008 saw the end of slides in club competitions alongside the trend generally. The emphasis today is on prints including all aspects of digital. Club competitions include print and digital image projection.
Members attend GPC for a variety of reasons, principally to vent their competitive edge in a friendly and constructive atmosphere, some to observe rather than participate, and all to learn from others and enjoy the company of like minded people.
