The external speaker who was booked for this evening had to cancel at the last minute. Our chair, Julia Lloyd-Parks stepped in and gave a presentation of images she'd taken on a recent trip to Bulgaria to photograph butterflies and other insects.

We were all grateful to Julia for filling in for our missing external speaker.
After a break for tea, coffee and biscuits, we discussed the upcoming annual club exhibition, to be held in Lacock Village Hall on Sunday May 4th and Monday May 5th 2025.
We discussed how to advertise the exhibition, and the possibility of getting it mentioned on local radio.
Danny pointed out that as far as club members were concerned, a more pressing date for our diaries is 18th April, by which time all image titles and details must be submitted to Lesley, our club secretary, in order to give her time to print out the labels.
Our next meeting will be on February 27th.
