  • “In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.” ...
  • “There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.” ...
  • “Taking an image, freezing a moment, reveals how rich reality truly is.” ...
  • “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving.

Notice: Due to the severity of the Coronavirus the club is closing down activities until further notice: We hope to be back ASAP but please check this site, follow emails as they are sent and proceed with competition images to reduce waiting times for competitions when we return

Dear members,
I have had an email from Lin at the People Centre outlining the current situation regarding the lockdown.
Lin informs me that the Board of Directors for the centre have no plans, as this moment in time, to re-open the facility. This being due to the Government not yet having released any guidelines regarding the opening of community centres.  Neither are there any from the Health and Safety Department at the Hartlepool Borough Council.
Lin will inform us as soon as there is any decision made by the board when she will then be letting all the regular groups at the Centre know.
There will of course, be many changes to the way we carry out our services and classes but, paramount will be the health and safety of everyone. 

Goes without saying I suppose.
We will appraise the situation from our perspective once we have a clear way forward.
In the meanwhile, I am still taking donations towards a little help whilst the centre has been closed.
I know these are unique circumstances and hope we never find ourselves in anything like it again but we are just trying to ensure we have a future as a club when this is all over…

The Creative Manipulated Images results are posted on the webpage 

Print Competitions will be judged as Digital Images until things get back to normal so please submit your entries for the Projected Images as Digital to Gordon Dale
