Last week, there was an enthusiastic reception to setting up mentoring groups as part of our activities. I’m now working on a form for those (the majority who were present) to sign-up. We are also looking at the program for meetings when we can hold mentoring sessions.
For those who weren’t at the meeting, here’s some background information.
What is mentoring
- Would you like to have others discuss your work in small groups so you get an alternative viewpoint? Others won’t have the same emotional attachment to your image.
- Would you like more help to understand how to get certain effects or get the most out of your camera?
- Do you have other questions about photography?
- Perhaps you’d just like to help others develop their skills?
- Do you just fancy talking about images in a small group?
If so, then mentoring may be for you.
This to enhance your skills – not necessarily for competitions
How will these group work?
- However you want them to
- They have a random distribution of people with different skill levels
- Discussion within groups can take place via Email, WhatsApp, over a drink, each group decides what they want to do. We will also use club meetings.
Look out for the email and WhatsApp message so you can sign up to participate.
