Bring in those images that you love, but for some reason, Judges don't. Lets find out why and what faults they have listed, if it's one that has been in competition, or for those that haven't been entered, give us your reason why not and lets see if they are right or not.

There could well be a prize for the one with the most faults.... you never know.

As well as a learning night, this is also a bit of light hearted entertainment.

Michael has secured access to both the inside and outside at non public opening times for the purpose of taking images.

A rare opportunity for any photographer.

I've no doubt we will enjoy the venue, and a discussion in one of the local establishments after the event.

It's likely that a small donation will be suggested for anyone attending. This has yet to be confirmed

A chance find at an auction house unearthed a box of file negatives, some developed, some not. What was uncovered was the story of one woman passion for street photography that in the days when she was alive would have been cutting edge practices and techniques.

The ripped around the world when her work went on display changed a great number of perceptions.

Well worth seeing.....

You've had a list of 12 titles, and advised that you have to have 12 x 6"x4" prints, surface mounted on one board in the same order as the title appears on the list. Cut the list up to add the title under the image. It's all down to your interpretation of that word. No help, no advice, no definitions given.

And whilst it's been some time in the planning and after numerous reminders and delays the One Board competition will be judged tonight.

We will have an independent judge attend, someone with knowledge of the competitions origins and how it should work.

Good luck......i know I'll need it.

At the start of the year you were told that you needed to compile a short audio video presentation. This is an aspect of photography that as a club we often overlook, but it's very much a dramatic and enjoyable nights entertainment.

You clip has 90 seconds max time limit. Believe me that's long enough. Preferably set to some music and with a theme. You'll be asked ahead of time for the theme and then your presentation will be played.

Good luck.
