Title

Welcome to ClubSNAP Photography Community

Description

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far far away, on a magical world with pixies, genies, fairies and sub-S$1K 20Mpix DSLRs .... oops, sorry, that one from my dreams :D

This brief history and update are for those members who have been wondering about how ClubSNAP came to be and who are the people behind ClubSNAP. Hope you find it interesting reading.

The origin of ClubSNAP can be traced way, way back to the Digicam & Photography SIG sub-forum in HWZ. During the time in HWZ, once the sub-forum became popular, the number of postings in DC&P grew substantially. Out of this online forum and also thru discussions on the IRC channel, one of the members had a desire and guts to suggest a face-to-face meeting, and sometime in mid-2001, the first ever in-person meeting was held between AdamGoi, Bluestrike, Condor and Ichungwe. Subsequently another, bigger, Gathering was held at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf restaurant in Funan Centre and if my memory serves me well, the people at that meeting were AdamGoi, me, Edmund, rueyloon, Bluestrike, ninelives and kianern (not a complete list as I distinctly remember more people than this, if you were there and I missed you out, my apologies, let me know and I will update). A few weeks later, another Gathering was held at the Funan Centre again (this time at McDonalds), and from there the regular meetings became known as SEEDs (a term coined and copyrighted by AdamGoi. SEED stands for Shopping for Equipment and Expendables Day). Apart from SEEDs, there were also pretty regular photoshoot outings to the Zoo, Sentosa and Bird Park as well as around the City.
