Cape Fear Camera Club

portraits of the area
The Cape Fear Camera Club was founded in July 1987
with about 15 enthusiastic shutterbugs, who met regularly
to share tips and tricks and to view and critique each other’s
work. Today the club has grown to 150 members, profes-sionals
and amateurs, united by a common interest in using
photography to capture the world around them.
The club continues to carry out its mission of promot-ing
and advancing the understanding, passion, and joy of
photography by providing opportunities for education, skill
development, picture taking, competition, critique, and
fellowship. Members can participate in monthly meetings,
workshops, lectures, mentoring programs, field trips,
exhibits and competitions.
Working through president Les Conner, we invited Cape
Fear Camera Club members to submit images that reflect
their ideas of what best sums up the Wrightsville Beach/
Wilmington area. We received 73 incredible images from
38 photographers. Even using our criteria of one photo
per photographer, it was difficult to whittle them down.
Because this is the June issue, we decided to make it easier
by selecting those with a beach/water/summer theme.
Our thanks to Conner and the camera club members
for participating. For more information on the club, visit
