Murcia photo of the month November 2023
ARCHIVED ARTICLE -
Here’s the top image of the month for November 2023, taken by the Los Alcázares Digital Camera Club (LADCC)
This queen of the night cactus (Hylocereus Undatus) presented a lighting challenge for the photographer as the plant only blooms for a short period during hours of darkness.Controlling the lighting involved using an artificial light source, in this case a head torch, and a piece of black card was used to eliminate the distracting background. Surprising the items you find in a photographer’s camera bag!
Why not join the Los Alcázares Digital Camera Club (LADCC) to exchange tips and techniques to develop your photographic skills?
Details of upcoming meetings are available on the LADCC website.

Share the pleasure of photography in the Mar Menor area
The Los Alcázares Digital Camera Club (LADCC) was founded in 2006 and was originally called the LA Digital Cafe, where members met over a coffee to discuss photography. This quickly developed into a more formal programme of monthly photo competitions and outings to places of photographic interest.
Over the years, the club has adapted to the changes in camera technology and techniques, and continued throughout Covid by using ‘Zoom’ for online meetings and learning sessions.
Fast forward to 2024, and the club is now a small, enthusiastic, friendly group where members encourage and support each other at the start of, and throughout, their photographic journey. The group includes a wide range of people with varying skills, all of whom are happy to share techniques, tips and ideas to improve one’s hobby.
They have monthly competitions and outings that provide an opportunity to explore different aspects of photography and develop camera craft and artistic skills. Their indoor sessions may include in-house training, reviews of monthly competitions or planning outings to cover topics discussed.
They meet once a month at the ‘Centro Cultural las Claras’ in Los Narejos, which has super facilities and ample parking. Any outings are usually towards the end of the month to link in with our regular competitions.
