The club outing by steam train from Cheltenham to Broadway and then on by coach to Bourton-on-the-Water took place on Saturday 28th May. Club members and friends left Hereford by coach at 08.30 in eager anticipation and we were blessed with lovely weather, if somewhat breezy. We had a whole carriage reserved for us and the one hour train journey was very interesting with lots to see along the way.
There are some photos from the day in the gallery (link)

We are very sad to report the death of our former Chairman and founding member Robert "Bob" Hall.
A lifelong Salvationist, we say he has been Promoted to Glory. He was an encourager and inspiration to those of us new to photography and also to the more proficient photographer.
Bob supported and attended the club for as long as he could until failing health caused him to take a step back. He was always asking how things were going and regularly viewed the club website to see the competition results.
