In January, the Society’s first Club Night of the year started with a Members’ Evening, entitled “My three best images of 2016”, whereby members had been invited to say why they had selected the subject, where it was taken, and what had been learned from taking it. Subjects ranged from close-up macro shots, portraits and wildlife, to broad landscapes, taken in a wide range of geographic locations, and treating fellow members to an enjoyable display.
Concluding the evening was the review of our monthly photo topic, entitled “Spires”. A broad range of photographs was shown which varied from local scenes to widely imaginative interpretations of “spires”. Once again, this gave rise to helpful comments and plenty of friendly banter among those present.
The Society’s next Club Night is on 1 February, when member Paul Brewerton will give a presentation on “A short journey through Alaska and the Yukon”. The Workshop on 18 January, “Outdoor photography: Shooting the sky at night”, will be led by Jim Muller/Simon Lutter/Gail Girvan, and on 15 February, “Basic Computing for Photographers” (Windows based), will be led by John Prentice. All meetings start at 7.30pm, and are held in the Cartwright Hotel, Aynho. Everyone is most welcome to attend, just come along and meet us all.
