September 2007

In March 2006 we held a very successful exhibition at the Cow Byre in Ruislip.
Those members who wished to participate each selected a panel of six prints to display. The subject matter varied from landscape to seascapes, photojournalism to the surreal. The photographs were viewed by over 300 people during the week of the exhibition. It was gratifying to hear the many favourable comments. Unfortunately the pictures were not for sale, as quite a few people enquired about purchasing them. The exhibition was the finalisation of the Society’s undertaking for the “Awards for All” Lottery grant. Previously to this, successful digital workshops with accompanying information sheets were held for the public. So successful, that requests have been received for more workshops.
The club has just concluded their Summer Programme which included visits to Hambledon, London Zoo, Canary Wharf, Kenwood House, the London Salon Exhibition and a member’s garden party.
Last season we were entertained with some outstanding photography, presented on many themes, by some excellent photographers who really felt deeply about their art and the subject upon which they were focussing.
We are now into our Winter Programme which runs from the beginning of September to the end of May. There are many interesting lectures booked for us to enjoy and of course we will now be starting in earnest to prepare some photographs for the forthcoming exhibitions and competitions.
We are a small friendly group who love photography, and are keen to share this passion with others. If you are interested, please come along to a meeting – there is no obligation to join, just enjoy yourself.
If you have any questions, please phone our Secretary Jill, on 020 8422 3193.
