A good group of about twenty members turned out for the National Glass Centre and riverside assignment outing. Colin must have used his best prayer mat to pray to the gods of weather, it was brilliant - wall to wall sunshine, blue skies, light cloud.
After a short briefing we all went our separate ways and in small groups to see what the Glass Centre had to offer in the way of photo opportunities. I don't think anyone was disappointed. The Centre offered some challenges, with bright light outside and subdued light inside with a bit of macro thrown in for good measure. Everyone enjoyed the glass blowing demo and seeing artists at work in their studios and workshops, plenty of photos taken. Not least dozens of “Blue and Yellow” which was the extra challenge of the day. And there were plenty of good photography opportunities along the banks of the river.
One of the highlights of the day soon came around lunch at the nearby Wolsey Arms which was excellent. A good day was had by all and we look forward to seeing the pictures at the follow up session. Well done Colin.
