11am – 4.30pm
Entry is free of charge.
The Summer Photography Course is rapidly approaching – this year it starts on the 30th June 2014.
Full details can be found at http://wdps.org/summer-photography-course-walthamstow-2014/
This year we will be using Eventbrite to both collect payments and manage the attendee list.
The Summer Course is incredibly important to the Society from a financial point of view and we ask all members to share the above page on Facebook, Twitter and any other social network or forum you may be a member of.
On most pages of this site there are sharing buttons to make this easier.
It’s started! Over 40 prints plus digital images.
Our exhibition at the Vestry House Museum runs until the 18th May 2014 and entry is free.
“Discover unseen, or unnoticed, aspects of Waltham Forest as recorded by the Walthamstow and District Photographic Society.
Think hidden locations, quirky viewpoints, interesting details and alternative takes on the familiar.
The Society brings together photographers with a wide range of interests; from natural history to portraiture, macro, abstracts, landscape and black and white work, all of which reflects and documents the Borough.”
The theme by popular consent will be Unseen Waltham Forest. We will aim to uncover and explore aspects of Waltham Forest whether unseen, or unnoticed, by the public. Hidden or unusual locations, quirky viewpoints, interesting details, an alternative take on the familiar – whatever suggests itself.
As this is a major exhibition we can reach out to people and organisations for photographic opportunities, so if you would like us to write to someone let us know who.
A great fun addition to the exhibition this year was the member’s vote.
Congratulations to the winners – but sorry there are no trophies!
