Next Wednesday sees the start of the 2013-2014 competition season when we kick off with Round 1 of the Projected Image Compettion. The judge for this round is Mark Mumford FRPS from South Wales. Mark visited us back in July showing how he created the images he used for his RPS Associateship & Fellowship panels - his take on more conventional (or should I say, less unconventional?) images should make for an interesting evening!

This is just a gentle reminder to members, especially the newer ones, that we have a fairly comprehensive library with over 250 books covering all aspects of photography. Members are welcome to borrow any of these (no charge), all you have to do is have a word with Mike Bigger during the break at any Wednesday meeting and he will sort you out!
