Well it turns out Lubbock has a Camera Club, and i will be an official member as of next month. Meetings are only once a month but hey, thats better than nothing. They have two types of meetings; a presentation meeting: where they will have a speaker and presentation about different styles of photography. The second type of meeting is a photo contest of sorts, however, members refer to it as "show and tell".
  Typically the first of the two types will be the prelude to the show and tell meeting(switching back and forth every month). The subject of the show and tell will be introduced and discussed during the presentation, essentially giving you one month to go out and put what you learned during the presentation to use. Check out their website at www.lubbockcameraclub.com . Their website has not been updated recently due to some technical problems which are in the process of being resolved. However, all meeting info is current. So if you are in the Lubbock area and are interested please feel free to drop by during a meeting to see what they are all about.

    Bio

       My name is Paul and I currently live in Lubbock, Tx. I enjoy playing Paintball, Cycling,     anything involving electronics, and Photography to name a few. 

       My interest in photography actually stemmed from an interest in videography. At an early age i would make home videos featuring exploding hotwheels, primitive horror films and even the more adventurous videos of my friends and i bombing hills on longboards and home made street luges. It was when i started dabbling in stop motion videography that i became interested in photography. I started out with my mother's point and shoot, yet i felt like there was so much untapped potential unachievable with her camera that i decided rather quickly that i needed a better one. By this time i had a job and after a couple of months got myself a bigger better camera. I joined a camera club in high school and a few years after graduating i got my hands on a Pentax DSLR. Pentax really appealed to me because of the enormous amount of compatibility with older, less expensive lenses. 

       Photography has been a part of my life for about 7 years now, although it has been a serious passion for only about 2-4 years on and off.
