does anyone know about any any photographic activities including amatuer courses,clubs,gatherings,any classes etc where people keen to learn photography can join :?:

I run a studio in sheffield which is always available for hire also checkout the following site http://www.sheffield-photographer.org.uk/ :lol:

[Mod Edit - De Caps'd the post - RPG]

Soz, don't know any clubs other than the Sheffield Phot. Soc.

I would be interested in finding more out about the studio though---prices, equipement, location etc.

Cheers.

sheffield photography society website is http://www.sheffield-photographer.org.uk/

but i am not entirely sure if it is "acceptable" of young people because looking at the photos they all seem to be of an older age group. This isnt meant to offend anyone by the way. Does anyone know of any of a younger age group?

EDIT- I didnt realise roger had already given a link to the SPS site....

Hey everyone.

I'll be in Sheffield for 8 month (October - May- and I'm really interested in PHOTOGRAPHY and I mean films and studio works with filtered lights and stuff.

So I want to meet Photography Friends and some studio people in order to continue with my passion.

Fell free to help and guide me.

Thank you.

As I said in this post (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=87895), it's pretty much of a photography club here. And we have all ages from old farts like me to young farts like Hook and Dafoot. :D

Watch out for posts on here about meetings and competitions and the like.
