November 2024 Newsletter
Monthly Competition
Summer is of cially over, if it ever actually arrived, and we have left behind BST on our wrists, mantelpieces and phones. To be fair, the weather hasn’t been so bad recently, and although it’s getting colder, there has been some good light, the usual stunning autumnal colours, and a series of awesome aurora. The T-W-T series of events continues to grow, and so far there is one published Scottish e-zine from the West Woods of Ethie walk: https://issuu.com/royalphotographicsociety/docs/ west_woods_of_ethie I’d hope there will be lots more to share with you in our next Newsletter. You’ll also see in this newsletter that there is plenty of choices with regards face to face events next year. This programme is kind of part of our new requirements as stated by RPS HQ, but actually we were doing or planning most of them anyway. Please support them, and make them the vibrant, happy days that we in RPS Scotland deserve. Speaking of deserving…all hail Clive Watkins ARPS, one of the latest additions to the ranks of A. Clive’s panel is deeply personal, and beautifully presented. It got it’s rst real airing at PhotoFest 24’s advisory day session, some extra input from Simon Hill FRPS, and Clive subsequently put in the hours, and reaped the reward. Congratulations.

Waterfalls…we’ve been chasing them obviously. And the best one was:
Dave Lynch: Skyefall and the Milky Way. Not surprised, but honourable mentions to Neil Goodwin ARPS, and Tracy Ross LRPS for brave attempts against a cracker. November’s topic is Creative…cool, so get creative and show us what you’ve got, where your mind goes. Could be scary! https://rps.org/ regions/scotland/ scotland-monthlycompetition/ Send entries to Ken, sized at 1000px wide, by as many pixels as you want tall, via scotlandweb@rps.org
