Chairmans Newsletter No.42

Our split club evening was well supported in both camps, with 18 at Marwell Zoo and 23 at the club.

Marwell Zoo on a very warm bright summer evening was a pleasure to be at.  The animals were mainly, like the rest of us, hot and to bothered to move around, however, there was plenty of photos being taken and those that I managed to speak with were enjoying the visit.  The two young ladies who were our escorts answered questions and pointed out various interesting facts as we went around.

I am told that Georges talk and demonstrations were well received and some useful info passed around.
There is a new page on the web site  about this HERE

So our thanks to Mark, Jillian and to George for their contributions and organisation.

Next week is the Mix and Match club evening, attached is an explanation for those of you who are unsure what this means.  Jack Whitemore is to be the judge and Liz will be the scorer, what we do need if anyone has one is a timer.  So all we need is for you to turn up with a selection of prints, its not necessary for them to be mounted and for you to join in the fun!

my regards and keep snapping!

Just a quick note to say that there is the biggest military parade for decades on in Winchester on Wednesday(23rd).
I believe it will leave the cricket grounds at St Cross at 12noon.

Lots of different regiments and bands

Chairman's Newsletter No. 41

Dear Members,
With a full range of scores from George Walsh the last of this years assessments was subjected at times to some light hearted banter from the members with George. Yet his deep and vast knowledge of photography allowed him to pin point the salient points of every image. He did not fall into the old trap of describing the image, after all we can see what is presented, however the often short pause showed that he was studying the images with an experts eye. My thanks to Stan for his summing up and to everyone who assisted with the smooth running of the evening.

Sunday 20th 
The Timsbury hall management committee have invited us to put on a small display in the hall during the afternoon while they hold the opening ceremony for the new garden complex. My thanks to those who have left me some of your prints for this short exhibition. Hopefully the weather is kind for the occasion, I believe the opening is timed for 2;30pm.

Tuesday 22nd June. 
This is the planned visit to Marwell Zoo and I know that we can take extra people if you decide you want to go. For the rest of the club George Atkins is arranging to use the Royale projector to show some hints and tips to get the best out of an image. This is something you have asked us to do so please get involved, ask questions, bring a note book & pen.

My regards and keep snapping!
