About Houston Camera Club
Who are the members of HCC? They are working people, business
executives, doctors, lawyers, students, professional photographers,
retired people. They are people who just bought their first camera
or their first digital camera. Some are experienced photographers
whose work has been exhibited in salons around the world.
Some shoot photos in studios. Others enjoy spending their days in
the outdoors shooting nature and wildlife. Still others prefer
sports, landscapes, cityscapes, or people on the street. What they
have in common is an interest in the photographic process and the
art it produces.
HCC Competitions. Over the years, the club competitions have changed
to fit the medium of choice and the topics of greatest interest. As
of 2015, competition categories include Nature, Pictorial, Travel,
Photojournalism, and Creative, as well as a back-to-our-roots
category--Monochrome (black & white.) Once a quarter, there is a competition just
for those who participate in our field trips.
GSCCC and PSA Competitions. Photos are selected from our club
competitions for entry into regional and national competition events
at Gulf States Camera Club Council and Photographic Society of
America.
Programs and Workshops. Once a month, on the third Tuesday, we have
a meeting that alternates between Programs and Workshops. Programs
are put on by members or guests. Workshops are often hands-on photo
exercises or informative lectures.

visit with fellow club members "in the field".
