Fun Fotography Update

Did you take part in our Fun Fotography Workshop at VBC on March 22nd? If so I have reopened this for members to  continue to upload their images.

If you have some images from the night please upload them to the website (if you haven’t already).

The images do not have to be “great” they just need to be your attempt for each of the stations.

I am hoping to put together a presentation as a lead in to our next print night. “I need to have images to work with”!

Entries will close June 11th at midnight.

Thanks GregC
