Summer's Arrived Folks
A warm welcome to members and friends of
H2 Photographic Society

 
Cooling Down by Chris Shepherd
Virtually this Thursday...
 
So this Thursday we are going back to virtual. But in a very forward-looking way. We would like members to send in one image that they feel could be improved.

It may be that they have a definitive notion of how their image should look but have not been able to 
fulfil it to their satisfaction.

Or they may have a less defined idea - as photographers we have probably all had that feeling: "there's an image there, if only I could find it".

Whatever the issue, our club members are here to help. We will have a "group-think"; if our previous critique evenings are typical, there will be an abundance of positive and creative ideas. Who knows, there may even be a bit of screen-sharing tuition happening.

Please send your image to the below email address (with "Critique" as the subject), to arrive at H2 Towers by 11pm Wednesday 28 July.
See you Thursday, H2ers

Last Thursday...

...H2 members met in Harlow for a saunter along the Stort in the Summer warmth.

As can be seen from the attached image, we were favoured with superb lighting. Added to which there was a nearby inn for a "post-capture" libation.
It's not a bad ol' life, is it...

H2 SHOWCASE is where our club shows its work "to the world"

H2's Club Flickr Page

It's heartening to see so many images regularly uploaded to our club Flickr page. 

We'd love to see all members uploading their best work to our club Flickr page.

So if you have an image that you are pleased with, upload it to our club Flickr page - it'd be great to see it.


 
If you need some help with the members' Flickr page, please email your committee here and we will assist
