WELCOME | THE CLUB | TECHNIQUE | EVENTS | LINKS |
About 20 years ago, a group of photographers coming from another municipality within the Brussels area settled down in Jette/Brussels and founded a club which a local photo dealer was kind enough to house in his premises. |
ABOUT US
For more than 20 years, our group - be it under the name of "AP27" or "A.P. Brussels Miroir" -
ranked amongst the four best Belgian clubs, ending six times on the first place in the "Black & White"
category.
Most of the members got FIAP (International Federation of Photographic Art) distinctions.
One of our members is co-president at the "Fédération belge des photographes" and president at the "Fédération des cercles photographique".
Emile Gits, member of A.P. Brussels Miroir got six "médailles du Roi", the highest distinction
awarded to an individual photographer, elected best author of the year. In addition to that, he is
an honorary member of the Buenos Ayres photoclub and his work was exhibited at the Nikon gallery in Zurich.
He was fourteen times prize-winner of the " Nikon International Contest ".
We would like to have as many persons as possible discovering our photography,
and to encourage them getting actively involved in this form of art.
We decided to welcome all those interested at specific events -- technical lectures or presentations
Although our club basically acquired its reputation through traditional silver-based photography, we are certainly not resisting to the latest technical developments in our field. One of our members is a digital imaging professional working for the main frenchspeaking newspaper in Belgium. Two others are specializing in the same field, but as amateurs. Finally, our Internet presence is another evidence of our interest in new technologies. (http//www.brusselsmiroir.be - e-mail : brusselsmiroir@brutele.be)
