During the summer months of June, July
& August we have held impromptu outings. The first one being our annual
walk from the Spa Pavilion to the Victoria
at the Ferry when 12 members & guests took part in the walk, meeting the
non-walkers at the “Vic” where a total of 30 people enjoyed an excellent meal.
In July Bob William’s annual “Walkabout”
competition was held starting at Newbourne Fox, & finishing at the Fludyers
Hotel for a well earned meal. This event is run on the lines of a treasure hunt
where the clues are given to certain photographic locations along a specified
route. Everyone is armed with a disposable camera to take their own
interpretations of the nominated subjects. The resultant images will be judged
at the first meeting of the club in September.
The August meeting was aphotographic stroll along the river Deben from Kyson Point to Woodbridge Tide
Mill & back. Eight members participated in this event in perfect weather
conditions & afterwards called at Martlesham Red Lion for a meal.
Our first meeting of the newprogramme year will be on Thursday September 10th, when the results
of the “Walkabout” competition will be judged. Print & slide entries for
the first Open Competition will be accepted on this evening.
The rest of our September meetings
are as follows.
On Thursday September 17th
a Digital Working Group meeting will be held when the subject will be
“Preparing Images for Digital Projection & Printing.”
Thursday 24th September
will bring the first “Open” print & slide competition to be judged by Dennis Lumkin, followed by a presentation by Jenny Rudd.
Entries for the competition “Water”
should be handed in at this meeting.
Meetings
are held at the Senior Citizens’ Centre,Orwell
Road, Felixstowe. Anyone
interested in digital or conventional photography is more than welcome to join.
