At our club meeting on 2nd September, David Bull, formerly the CEO of UNICEF UK presented photos of his travels in aid of children all over the world. We had an excellent turnout, and members' donations, as well as David's generous donation of his speaking fee, amounted to £170 in total

I'm sure everyone enjoyed David's amazing presentation of a life in charitable causes. Thanks to David and everyone who donated.

There is a website called PictureCorrect which runs useful articles giving hints and tips.
Sue G recently spotted a good article about how to critique your own pictures and fix your mistakes.

Here is a direct link to the article.

On 27th June a group of club members went on a Falconry Experience Day with Wye Valley Falconry.

The day of the outing finally arrived and we were on our way. After a brilliant journey with little traffic we arrived at a warm and bright Chester. We were so fortunate with the weather after having had many  cool and wet days.

Congratulations are due to Sue, Peter and Lin who visited Colwyn Bay on Saturday 27th April 2019 for their prints to be assessed for the "Awards for Photographic Merit" (APM) award by the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB).

They submitted 10 prints each for assessment which were then marked by a panel of 6 judges who could award between 2 and 5 points for each print, and they had to achieve a minimum of 200 points to be awarded a Credit.
