It was lovely to see quite a few members at the portrait evening last night. Thanks to all who contributed to the evening and made sure it ran so well, and that we were adequately nourished with coffee/tea.

Mike and Andrew set up two little studios in the usual room with their own lights and backdrops which was very much appreciated. Many members also demonstrated their skill as models, thankfully everyone remained fully clothed (I believe)

Peter T had kindly arranged for us to shoot the Wellington Karate Club who were training next door and many members also took advantage of this arrangement.

I had a chat with Seb, the coach, afterwards and he was very pleased with the photos he saw so we wondered and hoped that members could send me their better photos - jpeg format , say 2018px longest dimension, to this address (wdcccompetitions@gmail.com) and I will collate them and make sure he gets them. It would be nice to do this over the next 7 days if you can please.

Next week's meeting (24th) is at the Rugby Club - Competition night judged by Ian Gearing from Weston-Super-Mare. We had a huge entry (77 entries, 47 architecture and 30 open) so we will need to start promptly at 7:30.
