Our Activities
Competitions & Workshops |
Guest Speakers |
Photoshoots & Outings |
Through competitions and workshops we all learn new skills. All our competitions are assessed by independent, experienced judges. Additionally, we enter a selection of regional and inter-club battles. |
A core component of our weekly meetings are talks by a variety of experienced speakers. Sessions cover a range of topics – see our Programme 2022/23 for details. |
A photography group should be a social group, and FWP normally organises an annual photo holiday, as well as summer outings and photoshoots throughout the year, details of which can be found in the members' newsletter (and News page). |
