Introduction to the new season followed by the Mike Goldie Trophy, an informal annual competition open to all paid-up members. The theme set by last year’s winner, Stuart Alexander, is ‘’Precarious” with the proviso that entries are unedited apart from resizing. Stuart will judge entries on the night (digital only, maximum of three images) and pick his winner.
Members are also invited to bring up to ten digital images for the summer challenge (“Gates”) and also 10-15 images for “What I Did This Summer” to share. Bring all images on a memory stick at the start of the evening.
