Bank Account Change
As many members are aware Maitland Camera Club have been in the process of changing banks. This change, to the Commonwealth Bank – Cessnock Branch, will make it easier for the treasurer and other committee members to undertake their duties.
All members will need to change the direct payment details saved in their online banking systems to the new account.
The new account details are:
BSB: 062-805
Account number: 10484948
Thank you for your support with this issue.

Some Inspirational Creative Photographers
As I drove home last night I was thinking of other creative photographers that I have come across in my roles with various national and international competitions. I thought members may like to explore some or all of the following!
Liz Hardley – is a New Zealand photographer who enters in the Maitland Salon. She has diverse creative images. https://www.lizhardleyimages.com/creative.html
Heather Prince – is a Victorian photographer. Again, enters in the Maitland Salon. All Heather’s work is stunning. I particularly like her still life work and its lighting. https://heatherprincephoto.com/altered-reality-off-and-away/
Karen Alsop – Karen like Michelle Kennedy has a creative mind that is beyond belief. https://www.portfolio.storyart.com.au/
Michelle Kennedy – is a local photographer who has presented sessions for MCC in previous years. Her work is superb. https://mkdigitalart.com.au/
Dianne English – is a long-time friend of our club and she will be doing two sessions later in the year. Dianne has a range of creative work, but recently she has been playing a lot with flowers. Dianne has a policy of growing all the flowers that she uses in her photography! https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100076287452776
