A Happy New Year to you all.

I hope that you have all had a chance to enjoy the Christmas break, even if it was different to previous years for many of us. The new year brings increased restrictions, with possibly worse to come. At the very least, you know that you have our regular Zoom meetings on a Tuesday evening to keep you entertained. Bromsgrove PS has proven how well we can adapt to challenging situations over the last 9 months and we will continue to do the same in the future.

Regardless of whether you are a New Year’s resolution person or not, why don’t you use the new year to take your photography further. Following on from the excellent presentation by Jenny and Colin on Taking Your Photography Beyond Bromsgrove, we have an early session this week on the practicalities of entering external exhibitions and competitions. It is a great experience to do this – even if your entries are unsuccessful, at the very least you will get access to a catalogue of successful images – giving you a chance to learn from current standards and trends in the world of photography. Colin has already sent out some information and you should have had a link from Richard for the Zoom meeting at 7-00 on Tuesday.

Our main event on Tuesday will be our annual New Year Quiz. It’s a shame that we can’t meet up socially at Avoncroft with some food and drink, but under the circumstances, this will be the next best thing. You should have already received information from Jan and Beks on how the evening will run. It should be a fun and relaxed evening. Food and drink is optional, but very much a case of bring your own.

Finally, Jenny has posted another excellent Nature Blog on our webpage https://www.bromsgroveps.com/category/specialist-groups/jenny-websters-nature-tips/

Despite the challenging weather conditions at the minute there a lot of good nature and other photographic opportunities out there. If nothing else, it will blow the cobwebs away.

See you all Tuesday

David
