The Summer months are when we take a bit of a rest from our regular meetings although we are getting together once a month to keep the pot boiling. Quite a few of the Members will be heading to the Paradise Wild Life Park on 16 July. You may remember they brought some animals to the Hailey Centre not too long ago and asked if the Camera Club would like to pay them a visit at Broxbourne. Members are continuing to take their spouses/partners too which is adding a great element to the social side of our field trips. Our Autumn Session will begin on 22 September, and the combined Art and Photography Exhibition will be on Saturday, 24 September. We will be asking you to vote for your favourite photo as last year, and the Art pictures will be on sale too. Prints of the photos in the Exhibition can be bought as well. We hope you are enjoying the “new” photos on the wall in the Hall at the Centre.

New Club Members are always welcome at all levels so if you, or someone you know, is interested in joining us please contact Sue in the office on 01279 721221.

Our front page photo, taken by Alan Reed, is of a rose in the Rose Garden at Anglesey Abbey, north of Cambridge, just after a shower. Just a reminder of what Summer is all about.

Very best wishes,

Alan Reed, President
