From 2004 onwards, we upgraded our cameras - with a budget provided by CFS HQ, to the VFBA - and purchased digital SLRs with good lenses, which increased our ability to take photos, and an increase in the quality of the images.We also had several non SLR digital cameras, which we allocated to CFS members at various brigade across the state. In 2004 - 05, they were located at Mt Gambier, Naracoorte, Littlehampton, Roseworthy and Mudla Wirra. In addition to those cameras, we encouraged other CFS members to send us their photos for inclusion on the website. We received lots of photos! This increased our ability to obtain images from places other than nearby to us. Many of these photos were added to our Photo Galleries. As well as images added to our Photo Galleries, we continued to add photos of appliances and stations to our ERGUIDE - the part of our website that displayed information about each individual brigade. As in the previous year, photos that appears on the Website were utilised in a wide range of other publications, including: Our photo gallery website The VFBA Website Publications promoting the VFBA CFS Volunteer magazine Emergency Management Australia CFS Headquarters Attorney Generals Department Adelaide Hills Courier newspaper Adelaide University’s newspaper Messenger newspaper Malcolm Buckby MP CFS Brigades websites CFS Brigades newsletters SAFECOM publications BFF1 training manual SAPOL Road Safety programme CFS members Various CFS Training manuals ICS manuals & presentations All of the images were supplied free of charge. Our activities were recognised by both a Highly Commended and Commended picture in the National Photo Competition held by the Emergency Management Australia (EMA). Many of the Promotions Unit submitted pictures were featured on display on the award night held in Canberra. Photo taken by Bill Corcoran at Naracoorte, November 2005 |
