Welcome!

On behalf of the North Georgia Camera Club Council, we would like to welcome you to our website and hope you will find our activities educational, motivating and fun. On October 23rd, 2010 the Rome Photo Club will host the third annual North Georgia Camera Club Council NG3C Shootout at Berry College.

We sincerely hope that those of you who participate will enjoy the fellowship, fun, and competitive spirit of the day. You and your fellow club members who have signed up will participate collectively as a team in pursuit of the judges' choice as " Shootout" champions. If you have not signed up and would like to, please check out the information located under the "About Us" and "Membership" menu items here.

From the beginning it has been our intention and desire to create a grand annual event that will bring photo enthusiasts from the North Georgia region and beyond closer together, individually and collectively, in hopes of promoting and enhancing the photo club community. We encourage you to take time during the day, even as you compete and represent your prospective club, to meet the members of all the clubs participating. It promises to be a wonderful opportunity to share ideas and experiences, network, and make new friends as we all come together to indulge our passion for photography.

You will notice that our Gallery section contains the results of the past two years' events. Please study them closely, as they represent the type and quality of efforts that our competitions have fostered. 

Several times during the year the 12-14 or more leaders of the North Georgia Camera Club Council meet to discuss plans and create the agenda and procedures for the NG3C. We would like to thank those of you who go beyond the competitions to help make them happen. It is enormously energizing to be part of this club of clubs!

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Rome Photo Club for sponsoring us this year, to Showcase Photography of Atlanta, all of the vendors and sponsors, our judges, and all of the participating clubs for making these events possible.

If you have questions, ideas, suggestions or comments, or if there is anything we can do for you please feel free to let us know.

Thank you all once again, enjoy your passion of photography, happy shooting, and best of luck to everyone.
