Millie Spavin  & Neil McCoubrey would like to thank everyone who helped make this year's BPS Photography Course a real success.

They are: Colin Hajee, Danny Heaton, Derek Ripper, Jon Leavins, Keith Wood, Jeff Hargreaves, Peter Howell, Pete McClosky, Peter Smith, Mark Stinchcombe, Steve Taylor and Harold Hurford.

Millie and her team taught 40 students, across 11 tutorial evenings and 3 field trips and, in the process, raised £6000 for BPS. That is a £57 subsidy for each and every BPS member. So we all owe them a big "thank you".

If anyone else would like to participate in making next year's course an equal success then please talk to Millie.

A couple of weeks ago we had a visit from Colin Trow-Poole who gave us an extremely entertaining talk called People & Places. Following Mike Bews' courtesy letter to thank Colin for a wonderful evening, he received the following from Colin which he thought should be shared by all who were at that evening:

 

Ann Owen, the editor of the WCPF Newsletter is looking for pictures to adorn the Newsletter cover and wondered if anyone from BPS would like to submit a suitable image. Ann has stressed that she would like the pictures to come from what she refers to as the "lesser known members" of the Society and not the better known photographers among the membership.

Hanham Photographic Society - Annual Exhibition.

Hanham PS are holding their Annual Exhibition on Saturday, 30 November in Hanham Methodist Church, Chapel Road, Hanham, Bristol, BS15 8SD from 10.00 a.m. - 3.30 p.m.   BPS members will be more than welcome to attend.

Nick Ayers has dropped me a line to mention that Adobe are offering, for a limited time only, an edition of the new Photoshop CC for photographers, for the princely sum of £8.78 per month which is drastically below the figures that were bandied about when CC was first introduced. The following is what Adobe have to say:

John Hudson recently entered eight shots to the Wrekin International (his first outside the club and Bristol Salon). He gained five acceptances and a FIAP gold medal for his image of a bat that we saw recently at the club - John is understandably "Over the moon!!"
