Camera Club - Wednesday January 22nd 2020
The 'Camera Club' returns, continuing as a purely social meeting of like minded souls wanting to spend a few hours learning a little more about their cameras, or other image taking devices, in a relaxed social atmosphere.
This morning (22nd Jan) we will be revisiting some of the videos that have been found useful to our members in the past. We all know we can watch an instruction video at any time, in the comfort of our own home... but we rarely do! Enjoy the chance to concentrate on an excellent and entertaining presenter, in the company of others who can provide useful comment and help if required. Don't forget to come a little early to enjoy a breakfast from Jackie and don't forget the coffee and biscuits too - what an excellent way to spend the morning!
All welcome whatever your photographic experience or aspirations.
