Club member Geoff Cowley has come up with an idea for a new club based activity.
As we all acknowledge, Zoom meetings are not especially good for meeting
people and socialising. In fact, hall based meetings offer only limited
opportunity for getting to know other club members as we mainly sit in
rigid rows, facing forward with the lights out.
Geoff's idea is to facilitate outings, where the purpose is photography, but
the atmosphere is social; an opportunity for club members to get to know one another.
This may appeal to both those who are new to the club as well as longer term members
who wish for a more social experience.
The outings are not intended to be formal training exercises, but where more experienced members are on hand, help will always be available and those present can share experiences and tips.
The
initial idea is to meet perhaps monthly to explore a local venue. As a start, Geoff proposes a nature-based theme at Dole Wood near Thurlby on the morning of Saturday
25th September.
An email to all members will go out shortly, containing further details and a contact email address for those that wish to register their interest.
