Our meeting o­n 3rd November will be a practical demonstration by Mr Gay Lancaster o­n  portraiture.    o­n Saturday 1st November many of us will be travelling by coach to London to see the musical ‘Les Miserables’ which should be a very enjoyable day out.

Our  next Practical evening will  be held o­n 5th November where members can practice with the clubs studio lighting and chat about photography in a more informal evening.

The following week, 10th November, will be a 3 – way Battle with the Isle of Thanet and Gateway Camera Clubs. .  This will be a superb evening and hopefully giving ‘food for thought’ to our members as it is always good to see other clubs work.
