Based in Dingwall, Ross-shire, the Club is one of the top Photography Clubs in the Highlands of Scotland. Our Members have a wide range of interests, experience and abilities ranging from National Award Winners to fairly ‘new to photography’ Members who are keen to learn and develop their skills. The Club runs regular Workshop Evenings to inform and encourage new or less experienced Members - but even the ‘experts’ can garner useful tips from workshop sessions.
Now that Covid restrictions have been lifted we are now running hybrid meetings. Due to work being carried out by the council on Egle House we are physically meeting in the hall at the back of the Church of Scotland on Castle Street.
Dingwall Camera Club is also known for running the Dingwall National Projected Image Exhibition- a National Competition which this year attracted 4583 entries from 489 entrants. See the relevant tab for details of the Competition and a link to a website showing all the award-winning images.
The images in the ‘slideshow’ on the right (or below if you're on mobile) shows top photographs from the 2022-23 Club Competitions.
