CAMERAS OUT IT'S A PRACTICAL EVENING

AN UPDATE

Hi H2 Members
As we all know the British weather is capricious beast: the sun is shining at the moment and depending on which forecast is looked at, it may or may not rain in Much Hadham later.

It has been a difficult decision but the practical evening
is still going ahead.

So keep an eye on whichever forecast you use and make your own mind up whether to come along or not; certainly, there will be some members attending, come rain or shine, literally.

We will meet in the Village Hall car park from 6pm, with camera and tripod (and an umbrella, perhaps).

Please note that due to lockdown regulations we are unable to offer refreshments.

And due to this change in the programme, the 'My Top Ten' virtual evening will now be on Thursday 3 September.

Hadham Church by Dave Hobbs

Your Image In Print...

The editor of Much Hadham Parish Magazine has asked for colour images to feature on the front page. She has asked for any shots that can be recognised as Much Hadham, be they landscapes, streetscapes or buildings. Given that they are for the front page, she asks for them to be 'portrait' format and she is quite happy to have a big sky or similar at the top to allow the magazine title to be placed in the top half.

As we know editors have to work to deadlines, and she is now planning the November edition. She would like to feature a creative colour shot of Much Hadham War Memorial on its front page and has asked H2 if we can supply an image.

Of course we can - so come on guys, this is a great opportunity to motivate ourselves, to unfurl our shutter-finger, get out and picture our environment, with the added impetus to get one of our images in print.

Please upload your images to our H2 Flickr page and they will be submitted to the editor for selection

Your Image in Print... (again)

We need images of Much Hadham Church to act as a gift to the departing headmistress of the school.
So, please upload any images of the church you have (full size) to our Flickr page by midnight Friday 28th as Jon will be arranging an independent judging to select the winning image which we will then print and mount as a gift.

The Programme for the Weeks Ahead

Our committee have been working hard to create a programme for the next few months, retaining what we could from the old programme and taking advantage of the fact that we are meeting over Zoom to bring in some speakers we would not normally have been able to. As the CV19 lockdown eases we are also endeavouring to organise practical evenings where we can meet (and remain safe)
