  • We had one of our biggest audiences of the season with 30 members attending. Many thanks to everyone who attended and took part. Minutes of the meeting will be circulated in due course. As mentioned above if you want to get involved with the activities needed to run the club then please see some job descriptions below that will give you an idea of the roles and responsibilities. The tasks are not onerous. Having more members helping lightens the load. This is especially true for the programme, so please do lend a hand. Many thanks also to all those members who delighted us with their 10 Best of the Season images. There were, I believe, 129 images, and what a cracking set of images they were. Many thanks to Adrian for putting them together with the music. It took him a whole day to get the show together thanks to Lightroom inability to play ball. A very professional piece of work and getting the tune ‘Albatross’ synced up with Ron’s images of seabirds was pure genius.

  • 1. Last week’s meeting: Panel Competition – judged by Phil Joyce. At the start Phil explained what he is looking for in a panel – something that is greater than the sum of its parts, images that work together as a coherent whole etc. He described and commented on the panels, pointing out where they worked well and made suggestions of what to consider if the photographer wanted to edit them. With a few of the prints he suggested changes in order of the prints and showed how different a subtle change of order could work. It was good to have an evening where we could be liberated from the tyranny of the single image. The results were: DPI panel winner: Peter Warrington – The M4 Print panel winner: Peter Warrington – The Road Less Travelled Many congratulations to Pete and all those who came close to the master!
