NThe first exhibition of the year is always an important one especially with a theme that is a specialist topic and requires one to have some specific gear. Nevertheless, 18 members went out of their comfort zone to present 33 spendid images. As is traditional, this resonates with members and normally there is an increase in interest and we see more images being submitted. This exhibition’s turnout is proof of that as we have 40 images being submitted from 21 members.
It was very inspiring to see new members supporting the evening as well as submitting images for the first time and being selected for the prestigious Museum Director and Staff picks.
Big thanks to everyone who turned out to support the evening. The first Challenge of 2025 is up next “View from a WIndow“
