Finally we reviewed the results from the questionnaire all club members are encouraged to complete at the end of each year.

To summarise a very detailed presentation given by our club secretary, members are looking for:
  • Social interaction with like-minded people

  • Learning new things, including camera use, techniques, post production etc.

  • Learning from other members


Our next meeting will be on 3rd October.

We were set three challenges for the summer:

  • Take a photo representing English summer
  • Take images of the same subject at 3 very different shutter speeds

Members are reminded to please complete the club questionaire and send it to Lesley.

The next meeting will be on 5th September, when we will continue with the letters theme, with the letter "L" coming next.
