Challenging yet rewarding, Wildlife photography will push you to your limits and test even the most determined of individuals.

Statement of Intent
The extraordinary city of Venice cast its spell on me when I was 13.
Returning often over decades, I love just wandering through the city, in order to share both the known and less know.
I hope to show the solace I find in the Venice of nocturnal winter, where it is possible to slow down, be still.
There is both time and space to contemplate the atmosphere, damp, often foggy and chilly.
The rhythm of the city ebbs and flows, I find myself surrounded by faded beauty, architecture and echoes of the past.
It is with great sadness we have to announce the death of our treasurer,John Dilworth. He will be greatly missed because of all the hard work he did for the committee. Our condolences go out to his family.
