Free Choice – November 2025

This month’s exhibition theme was the “Free Choice”. The only exhibition where members have no restrictions governing their images. As they say, “Anything Goes!”

With 38 prints on display, we can see why Free Choice will always be a fixed Theme on the calendar.

Our audience was again healthy as the weather has now stabilised, and we had approximately 55 people visit the exhibition, so a big thanks to those who came to support the event. Also a massive congrats to all the 13 members who submitted their Printed Portfolio and had them on display for the visitors to also view and vote on.
Conrats to Glyn Parry whose “Pictures of the Algarve” came out on top, ahead of Sharon Johnson’s “Between Us” and Robert Pool’s “Couples“.

The last challenge of 2025 is up next, and the theme is “Tree Trunks“.
