H2 NEWSLETTER
 

A super summer welcome to members and friends of
H2 Photographic Society


 
Copped Hall Sunset by John Thompson
Summer Break

It is the holiday season, so now we come to our short break between seasons.  We start our new season on 1st September in the hall (for those of you who have never been there the location details are below).

It is also time to renew your membership in the club and the details for this are in the panel below.

But we have a photo challenge to help fill the next three weeks,  so it is time to get out with the camera and take some shots based on the following themes.
  • Weird & Wonderful
  • Monochrome
  • Much Hadham
  • British Summertime

We will be critiquing these images on our first evening back and as its a chance to try out our new competition software it would be great if everyone could submit at least one image to ensure everything is working correctly.

The Walled Garden by Warren Martin
Copped Hall

Last Thursday we went to Copped Hall,  a huge thanks to Peter Warne for letting us have the run of the place. The weather was splendid and Peter let us explore the Walled Garden, the Cellars and the grounds.

All the pictures in this newsletter are from the meeting at Copped Hall and as you can see everyone enjoyed the chance to be really creative and it made a great ending to the 2021/22 Season.

Thank you from all at H2 Peter.
H2 Flickr Page: Keep 'Em Coming

Wow, we have over 3.2k images on our H2 Flickr page now. And each week members continue to upload their finest work for us to enjoy.

Flickr is a brilliant platform: it give us an insight into how and when the image was taken; what the photograph's 'vital statistics' are - shutter speed, f/stop and ISO - and the author can write information about their image.

Having a members-only page is also useful for our members to show us their work and gain positive comments and critique on them should they wish. Many are shown in this Newsletter week-on-week.

And members also have the added opportunity for the best-of-the-best to be exhibited in SHOWCASE; our Flickr page that is open for the world to view and enjoy.

We would encourage all members to upload their best work regularly.

                       Keep 'em coming, guys

(If any member requires assistance to use Flickr, please contact our committee by emailing mail@h2photo.org or just click here)
