Welcome to the Gateway Camera Club
Our goals are to share ideas, knowledge, and insight; to help improve the skills and abilities of our members; and to have some fun while enjoying photography. We recognize photography is changing, growing and with ever-emerging technologies, more exciting than ever! Gateway was one of the first local camera clubs to embrace digital photography and, as a result, we have some very knowledgeable digital photographers. Many award-winning members of Gateway Camera Club honed their talents and abilities through the mentoring they found at Gateway.
Our club is very active and we meet on most Tuesdays from September to June 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm. Want to compete, learn and share? Check out our exciting schedule. Visitors and new members are always welcome. Just stop in and introduce yourself. We hope you'll soon find an aspect of Gateway that fits your interests. Please browse our website, learn more about what we do, and enjoy. And remember, enthusiasm is catchy.
Come and catch some!

Our 3rd International meeting with Vera International Photo Club of Spain will focus on the style and motivation for your photos.
Each club will share 20 photos during our 2 hour virtual meeting, from 10:00 to noon. Like the print peer review meeting, you should submit photos that are special to you, or that express how you look at the world. Unlike last year, photos from places outside of the US are welcome. Each photographer will have up to two minutes to discuss the reason that they took this photo and why they consider it one of their favorites.
You can now submit your images! Deadline for submissions is June 13 at 11:59 PM. Submit like you submit for regular monthly competitions - Competitions - Submit Images to a Competition
NOTE: Important: When submitting your images, please size them as 3850 as the height width and 2160 as the height not the normal 1400 x 1050 we use for competition.

Photographer's Event List
Buz is creating an events of interest to photographers list. This is intended to be an interactive list with any member sending Buz an event that they've learned about. The event can be anything that you think would be of interest to photographers. These could be larger regional events or small home town celebrations of some kind. Any theme might be a good event: specialty sports (nat'l leagues, we already know about), state and local fairs and festivals, flowers and gardens, historic, specihttps://www.meetup.com/bostonareaphotography/photos/33437602/512049040/al visiting exhibits at museums, and events that defy categorization. As you send Buz events, he will add to the list and send out periodic updated e-mails.
