Hello to all our readers, and may I begin by wishing everyone a Happy and Healthy New Year.
Since the submission date for this magazine is earlier than usual, some happenings in December will have to be held back for a later issue. During December, the Club has been involved in photographing Garstang Christmas lights and the two Victorian Evenings. We will have had our Christmas Party, “a reet good do” with thanks to all involved in it’s organisation. Our diary for January is as follows :
Jan. 4th. Carmen Norman will give us LAKE DISTRICT MOODS . This is by way of ZOOM.
.. 11th. Anthony Zacharias on LONG EXPOSURE PHOTOGRAPHY also by ZOOM.
.. 18th. Judging of our CREATURES OF THE WORLD competition by Paul King CPAGB.
.. 25th. Member’s Evening with various activities.
Feb. 1st. Workshop for club members.
Also , we have two “Battles” , the first on Jan. 26th. with Morecambe Photographic Society. The second one, an International Battle with Rangiora Photographic Society on Feb.8th. We are looking forward to welcoming two new opponents. These battles are judged between the two clubs involved , each of which has entered a stipulated number of images.
As I am writing this, snow is being forecast and so some good opportunities to battle with the white stuff ( as a Canadian friend of mine always described it, having lived with it each year for 5 months! ) may appear. Good luck, but wrap up well !
That’s all folks.
