Thetford

Programme, Projects, Field Trips & News

Over the years the group has been running some of topics covered have been:
Storage, retrieval and editing of photos using various software programmes.
Depth of field.
Portraits and studio work.
Monochrome and Macro photography.
Still Life.
Landscapes.

We share and discuss our photos after field trips and projects – and it’s amazing that we all take different photos and have different perspectives on photos even though we take photos at the same venues or of the same subjects.

Field Trips are arranged to occur either during the monthly meeting or as an extra, in 2017 we have been in Thetford town centre for night-time photos (very cold!) and to Ickworth House park for landscapes, and to Rachel's garden for macro photography.
In 2018 we had field trips for 'Action' shots, Seascapes (the coast, of course), and landscapes and architecture.

In 2019 we had an annual theme on 'Beautiful Thetford', monthly photos reflecting our town and surroundings. These photos were carefully sorted, whittled down and finally collated and published in 2020 as: 'OUR BEAUTIFUL THETFORD' at the beginning of the Covid lockdown. The books were distributed free to all the homes in Thetford, just in time to cheer everyone up!
In 2020 and 2021 we were not able to meet together safely indoors but that did not stop us getting out with our cameras!
