Our competition this evening was judged by Eddie Lord, visiting us from the Crawley Downs Camera club. We had 32 images entered into this competition, all in one class. It was clear during the evening that our judge was looking for impact from an image, and...
There is so much editing/post processing software out there for us photographers to play with…or not, as the case may be. Our online meeting on 8th November saw six members demonstrate their tips, tricks, thoughts and styles whilst editing random images from fellow members. As a bonus (😊) all six were also given the same image to edit and that did produce some very different outcomes.
This week we welcomed back Joe Franklin for a further studio based portrait photography session. Joe has been with us three times before to provide similar evenings, on those occasions using everything from large studio strobe lighting with soft boxes to achieve his...

A warm welcome to all, both returning and any new or potential members reading this! It was great to be back at St. Patrick’s Centre and of course, this is now our first full season in the venue so we were able to enjoy the full splendour of the room on a rather warm...
A very quick blog entry to end this season and there are sadly no photos. We had a rather welcome positive feel to this season’s AGM with sufficient members joining to ensure it complied with all our requirements for voting, etc. So we give a very warm welcome to our...
31 May, 2023 This evening we welcomed Keith Newton as our judge for our final monochrome print competition of the club year. Keith is a member of the Woking Photographic Society as well as the Aldershot, Farnham and Fleet Camera Club, and an accredited judge. We...
This week we had the pleasure of a visit (via Zoom) from Barbie Lindsay, describing and illustrating her trip to India around a decade ago. This talk was originally scheduled for the end of January this year, but had to be abandoned due to IT issues on the evening. ...
