Thursday 15^th May was the clubs first meeting of the summer programme held at Jameston Community Hall.

The clubs vice chairman introduced to the evening and gave a brief explanation of the programme of events. He went on to introduce Ray Hines one of the founder members of the club and himself an experienced photographer.

Ray began the evening with a power point presentation talking about aperture, depth of field, shutter speeds. Following a break for refreshments Ray continued the evenings talk with his own images and explaining the various processes that he adopted to produce the shot.

The evening was attended by 15 members of the club with one new face who we hope will continue to come along.
