Morning All
Many thanks to all members who managed to bring some images in to the club meeting last Wednesday; it was really great to see the ‘show and tell’ images in a relaxed manner! Some very interesting ones indeed! Don’t forget to get those horizon’s straight!

Camera Club exhibition. We will be exhibiting all winning prints, colour and monochrome, from last year’s 5 interval competitions; these will include 1st, 2nd and 3rd print winners plus all highly commended and commended ones. They will be hung in the Arts Centre on Saturday 23rd September and the exhibition will run until Thursday 19th October.
If you have forgotten (!) all the winners are on our website, under Competition Results.
So, please, begin to dig out those winners and set them aside ‘cos we will send out, in a future newsletter, when we need them in. Many thanks.
Up and coming programme of events:
Wednesday 28th June: Camera club outing to Cockersand Abbey and Plover Scar Lighthouse. Details: there are several attachments: where we are going to meet (Stork Hotel indicated plus an arrow) and either car share or drive in a convoy from there: and, the actual route (in 2 parts) to the car parking area.
We will meet at 7.15pm (opposite the Stork Hotel) and drive to the car park at 7.30pm. High tide is at 8.13pm and the weather appears, at the time of typing this, to be good with the sunset at 9.47pm.
It’s a great walk and not too far and will take in Cockersand Abbey and The Plover Scar Lighthouse amongst other possible bird/wildlife; nothing guaranteed though!
ANY problems or questions just email in as usual – ta.
Wednesday 5th July: Please ‘show and tell’ about any images you may wish to share, including those from the previous week. Please bring them along on a USB ‘stick’ or send them to me and I will add them to the PowerPoint presentation. Plus, a small presentation on 2023 Bird Photography award winners with backstories and other winners!
Wednesday 12th July: Events Cup, 4th destination, is Brockholes; further info later. This outing is instead of the weekly meeting at the Arts Centre.
