Thanks to Club member Albert Horton for the following precis about the Club:

 

We are a small and friendly Club based near the town centre meeting at the British Red Cross Hall, Robingoodfellows Lane, March, PE15 8HL close to the March Town Football ground. It meets at 7.30 p.m. every Thursday from the beginning of September to the end of April.

The Club has been established in its current basis since at least the early 1960’s, its earlier history however is unfortunately not documented. With the advance of the Digital Age the world of photography has changed immensely and the Club has embraced the opportunities with enthusiasm. We do retain the knowledge and appreciation of traditional photography and its methods among our membership but our main interest as an active Camera Club is in the final image, be it a projection or a print.

 The Club has around 30 active members and a programme embracing the following activities:

Internal competitions

External competitions

Exhibitions

Demonstrations and lectures

Trips

Social Evenings

Throughout the year the Club invites guest speakers to give lectures on a wide range of topics from photographic techniques and printing through to digital presentations. The Club is affiliated to the East Anglian Federation of Photographic Societies through which it is affiliated to the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain. By virtue of this membership, the Club is able to participate in events that are organized or sponsored by these groups.

The Club is an ideal way to share your pictures. By looking at other people's work you are able to get new ideas for places to go, subjects, methods, equipment, ways to show photographs and standards. Most importantly it is an enjoyable reason to take pictures. You can ask how pictures have been taken and learn new techniques. You can take advantage of the informal part of meetings (start, end and coffee break) to ask for help, give help and to talk to people who take the sort of pictures that interest you.

Annual Subscription 2011/12 is £40 (half price for those in full-time education and £10 discount for joint members).

There is also a £1.00 attendance fee on every club night.

New members are always welcome – why not come along for a free taster one Thursday evening?
