Special Interest Groups

Special Interest Groups, or SIGs, are small groups of OCC members who share a common photography interest and want to explore it in more depth.

Each group is member-led. Members choose the topic, set the schedule, decide how the group will meet, and shape what they want to learn or create together.

Member-Led

SIGs are proposed and organized by club members with a shared interest.

Flexible

Each group sets its own schedule, goals, format, and duration.

Focused Learning

Members can explore a subject more deeply through discussion, practice, and shared projects.

Examples of SIGs

Special Interest Groups change from year to year based on member interest, but here are some examples of the types of groups you may find at OCC.

Black & White Photography

Explore tone, contrast, and storytelling without colour.

Image Evaluation

Review and critique images to improve composition and impact.

U

Macro Photography

Capture the small details and hidden worlds up close.

Creative & Experimental

Try new techniques, editing styles, and creative approaches.

SIG offerings vary each season based on member interest.

How to Join a SIG

Special Interest Groups are available to Oshawa Camera Club members. When groups are active, members can sign up, contact the group leader, or watch for club announcements.

Because SIGs are member-led, topics and schedules may change from season to season.

SIGs are one of the many ways OCC members learn from each other, share ideas, and explore photography beyond regular meetings.
