Photography Club, Opening Day at GEC




Goa College of Engineering at Farmagudi, Ponda has just opened a new club today, called the 'Photography Club'. A group of final year students have decided to put together a community who shares common interests and develop skills in the field of Photography.

'Its about time' they said, 'the college gives students the opportunity to develop their talents in fields other than only academics.'


The opening was an interesting meeting where Enthusiasts gathered, a small presentation was given by Mr. Noah Silveira, BE ETC, in which he put forward many misconceptions in digital photography and also gave interesting events to be held in the forthcoming year.

The club committee, comprising of Mr. Nikhil Kakodkar, Mr.Pranav Pai Vernekar & Mr.Noah Silveira, put forward ideas like: trekking & photo shoots.

An interesting one is the 'Pic of the Month', in which every month a theme will be given to the college and the pictures submitted will be judged by a professional, the winning photo will be displayed on the noticeboard. The theme for the month of August is 'Go Green', wherein one could capture Nature's beauty in all its fullness, especially this season of the year.

Overall the first meeting seemed to be a great start to a new beginning in the field of photography. We ought to appreciate the work put behind getting this wonderful initiative to practice.
