At our recent Black and White print competition there were 37 entries of a very good standard which gave the judge, John Tilsley, a very difficult Job.

On Monday October 21st we had an experimental practical evening. members were asked to bring suitable items and support material to use for Table Top Photography.

Members also benefited from being able to work together, mix and mingle with positive interaction.

It is with sadness that I have to report the passing away of Ron Holmes, one of the longest serving members of the club, at the age of 95. Ron was a past Chairman of the club and also judged competitions. He always had a cheery disposition and was helpful and encouraging to all members of the club, as well as having a great sense of humour. Goodbye Ron, you will be missed.😥
