The April Out & About day is on Tuesday 3rd April when we will be visiting the SPA Biennial Exhibition in Guildford. See here for details.
Our
next Out & About day is on Sunday 11th March with a visit to Chatham Dockyard. See here for details.
Also, we're very happy to now report that our negotiations with an alternative venue for our meetings have now been successful and we will be moving to the White Hart Barn in Godstone for the 2012-13 season. More details will appear here in due course, but this venue is far superior to our current location, with ample parking, much more meeting space, and much better facilities.
Our
next Out & About day is on Feb 4th at Wisley RHS Gardens. See here for details.
Also, we're sorry to report that our earlier negotiations with an alternative venue for our meetings have met a temporary setback, but we are still looking! If anybody knows a suitable venue within the Tandridge district, please contact the club Chairman.
A Happy New Year to all our members, current, past and future!
A short reminder that our first proper meeting of the new year is on Jan 12th, when we have an exhibition and discussion of members pictures taken on the various Out & About days. But before that, on Wednesday 11th, there is another Out & About day at Kensal Green Cemetery in London.
See here for details.
After a short intermission due to bad weather and holidays, the Out & About group outings are resuming with a trip to Borough Market in London, followed by an exhibition visit. See here for details.
Our new season of meetings is now underway, and we're pleased to report a significant number of new members joing the club. If you're interested in advancing your photography, or would just enjoy seeing the work of others, then do pay us a visit. An initial visit is free, and you may attend any meeting in the programme for a standard fee of £3.00, which includes refreshments. Come along - we don't bite!
The programme for the 2011-12 season has now been published on this website - just click the menu item on the left.
The full programme of the summer workshop sessions has now been published - see here for details. These are open to all members of the public to attend, and intend giving a taster for the technical and artistic issues that face everyone trying to produce better photography. They proved very opular last year, and so we are repeating many of the sessions this year. We look forward to meeting you...
The club committee was duly re-elected at the AGM on 26th May, with a few changes - see our Contacts page for current positions.
The programme for the 2011-12 season has now been finalised, and will be made available online shortly. In the meantime, we have a full programme of summer events, including pub meetings, workshops and outings - see here for details.
The next Out & About event is a day out at Dungeness on Saturday 7th May. Contact Paul Knivett for details and transport arrangements.
Due to a family bereavement, Brian Smith will no longer be presenting a talk on Creating a Photo Website on March 31st. Instead, at the last minute, newly recruited member and professional landscape photographer Derek Forss will be hosting the evening, with an entertaining two-part session on landscape photography.
A reminder to members that on Thursday 24th Feb we have our annual panel competition, for both prints and PDIs. Full details of the submission requirements are now online - click here.
Just a reminder to members that on Thursday 17th Feb there is no meeting at the Community Hall - instead we are converging on the TopFoto Gallery in Edenbridge to view the latest photographic exhibition, and also see behind the scenes the work of the picture library. Refreshments will be provided.
Our enterprising Out & About group now has its own page: see here for details and images of past outings, and plans for future trips.
