What's on

2024
Most of our meetings are held online via Zoom - the link to each meeting is available in our Slack discussion group (open to members only). On the first Tuesday of each month we try to hold a physical meeting during the day at a central venue in the city. Again, details of these meetings are available in our Slack discussion groups.

Our objective is to provide fun and enjoyment for all our members by creating a sense of achievement through skill development and challenge. We welcome all photographers who wish to improve their level of photography irrespective of ability.
