The weather has influenced two events in the next few weeks. Firstly we've had a poor entry level for the set subject "Stormy Weather" competition so we've reluctantly replaced this with a print knockout competition. Secondly we've postponed the bluebell walk until the 5th May in the hope that we'll have better weather! I'm sorry if this inconveniences members; more details are available under Announcements and in the Forum.
29th April is World Pinhole Photography Day. I hope members will participate and share their images in our Forum. The dire weather will probably mean very long exposures but at least if you're using a digital camera you can check your histogram to ensure the exposure is acceptable. I wonder if anyone will be brave enough to try a portrait? I think I'll be trying some indoor shots this time.
Our meeting on Monday evening will be the last opportunity to pass Committee Nomination forms and Proposals for discussion at the AGM to Linda. It's also the commentary to our annual exhibition and we're very fortunate to have John Credland stand in for Micki Aston at the eleventh hour. John is a very experienced photographer and judge, so we should have a really enjoyable evening.
Finally, unless you are venturing out to take photographs, why not look at the 'Just for Fun' section in the forum and try your hand at the set subject and title competitions.
Happy shooting.
