About Seoul Photo Club

Expat photographers all around Korea contributing photos and developing their photography.
The monthly themed challenge is published in Groove Magazine - a nationwide expat mag.

Attention those new (and old) to photography:

There is a wealth of information about many different aspects of photography in the more than 60 Korea Herald 'In Focus' articles in the archive here, along with the challenge winning photos.

Other cool Flickr groups in Korea:

Visit the Seoul Strobist Club for discussion on strobist technique and to catch up on the latest location shoots and competitions.
If you don't live in Korea, want to post images taken elsewhere and want that good old SPC community feel, head over to Seoul Photo Club International.
If you are looking for regular meet-ups and photo walks in Seoul and environs, also join up at Flickr in Seoul - another very friendly and helpful Flickr group in Korea.
The group Cosplay Korea is where you can find out about upcoming cosplay events. Always fantastic events for great portraits with very colorful, willing and interesting subjects.

Scanning / Developing / Printing

Need 35mm film scanned?? Drop Dylan a line. 3000 won a roll and just as good as the lab. See here for a bit more detail. Check out the Developing Film and Printing in Seoul page on the SPC blog for where to get these things done.

IN GENERAL:

1. Read all the rules!!
2. Comment constructively on other people's photos - "Nice pic" is extremely poor constructive criticism and is considered offensive by conscientious SPC members. Point out positives and negatives that you see in a photo.

POOL SUBMISSIONS: all photos must be taken by you in Korea

1. Submit one photo.
2. Then comment constructively on the two previous photos in the pool.
3. You can submit another photo once two photos from other people have been published.
4. Rinse and repeat.
