6 OCTOBER 2022
An evening where we enjoyed a great mixture of members' contributions - a couple of earlier shoots, September images and a learning session.
Julia started off the meeting by giving a presentation on multiple-exposure in-camera based on her experiences with Canon cameras, advising members to check the availability of this facility on other camera brands. She illustrated the process with a number of both successful and experimental images from her own collection and encouraged others to have fun and enjoy the surprises that can sometimes result from this technique. (Note: this presentation will be added to the Club's collection of shared learning material).
We had time to catch up with a couple of Club shoots from earlier in the year. Back in July, a walk around public access gardens in Marlborough gave participants a number of surprises - quiet parks, a flower-filled lane, a community allotment and a sizeable Victorian cemetery that is left unmown to encourage wildlife and wildflowers.
Our second catch-up shoot was the one to Brown's (or Browne's) Folly, near Monkton Farleigh, which took place on a hot, bright August evening. We found a strange mix of views across Bath, slopes of wildflowers, quarries, steep drops, a stone folly and goats!
