Very many thanks to Diane for her engrossing, entertaining and informative talk about “how photographers have fooled viewers over the years” using examples of photographers from the nineteenth century through to today’s contemporary exponents.
Diane gave us an evening of thought provoking and inspiring facts and images. She reminded us that it is the photographer, not the camera, that makes the photograph.
Thanks again Diane for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Next week we are back at Century for our Nature and Open print competitions which will be judged by Chris Drury.
In the meantime stay warm!
A very pleasant evening sharing ideas, thoughts and images that would make good personalised greetings and post cards. A variety of images from beautiful landscapes to unbound imagination and creativity. Such a change from ‘critical’ analyses of work in this relaxed environment where exchange of views and ideas were both useful and informative.
Many thanks to Mark and to everyone who contributed to the evening.
Next week we are back on Zoom for a talk by Diane Seddon ARPS CPAGB BPE3 – Odd Things, Part Two II
In the meantime have a very good week.
Many thanks to Dennis for judging last night’s competitions in a sympathetic and positive way.
The Open competition was won by Judith Gimber with her ‘Call to Prayer’ and her ‘Rosy Pelican Detail’ was second; Avril Candler’s ‘Sharing’ was third. Dennis was very complimentary about all the images and several were highly commended and commended. All the photographs may be seen on Facebook.
Open Winner by Judith Gimber
Landscape: Judith’s ‘Toe in the Water’ claimed the trophy; John Draper’s ‘Misty Glade’ was second and Peter Polkinghorne’s ‘ From the West to the Hill’ third. Once again Dennis was very generous with everything else awarded highly or commended.

Congratulations to everyone who entered and supported the evening. Once again many thanks to Dennis for his empathetic comments which made for a very pleasant evening.
Next week we are ”at home’ at Century for a members evening about producing images for card-giving occasions.
In the meantime enjoy the week ahead.
