This Friday, John White EFIAP/g, BPE 5*, CPAGB from Tettenahll Wood Photographic Club will show us a selection of his excellent prints and anecdotes in the aptly named lecture “An evening with John White.”Members attending the Learners Hour should bring their cameras along when help will be given on settings.
Next Friday, 9 December, Tom Dodd FRPS, FIPF, DPAGB (supported by Permajet) http://www.tomdoddphotography.com from Blaenau Ffestiniog will treat us to a selection of colour and mono prints with his lecture “Something for Everyone.” The Learners Hour will give members a chance to have a critique of their images so bring some along on a memory stick.
The club’s Christmas party will be on Friday 16 December starting at 8pm when partners are invited to come along. Please let Sheila know if you’re coming so that she can cater for the correct number.
