Congratulations to all the winners of our last competition “The Natural World” judged by Harry Wheeler-Brand last Monday. Watch the website or Facebook & Twitter to see the results soon.

Next Monday Night

Next Monday is Easter Monday so we will have no meeting. Enjoy the long weekend and see you on the 12th of April when a group of our members will take the members through basic editing in Photoshop and Lightroom.

Today's Newsletter will only be the results of this weeks Flickr Theme and the details of next weeks Theme.

Spring/Easter

Spring bulbs, Lambs, Rabbits, Eggs, New Growth, Nesting birds, Bees  Blossoms or something completely different. With no meeting on Monday and the clock change last week you have more evening light. 

We may also have a varied selection of "Spring" weather so get out and get shooting.
