    • Wanted: Canon 70-200mm lens and a better tripod! Hi all, I'm looking for a Canon 70-200 f2.8 lens for EF fit, and I was wondering if anyone might be looking to sell one. I've been looking online, but I thought it might be worth asking the group first! I'm also looking for a better tripod - basically anything is an upgrade from what I'm using, so let me know if you might be interested in selling one.Hi all, I'm looking for a Canon 70-200 f2.8 lens for EF fit, and I was wondering if anyone might be looking to sell one.

    • WCPF AGM – Saturday 7th October To everyone in the WCPF - Club reps, please circulate this to your members as it contains important information about this coming Saturday's events. AGM This Saturday, 7th October, we hold our AGM at Bovey Tracey Golf Centre. It starts at 1030am and will hopefully be fairly brief. We do need as many people as possible to attend and for clubs to send up to two representatives to vote. It would be lovely to have a good turn out. As you know, the Golf Centre has ample parking and excellent food. There have been a lot of  changes in club contact email addresses recently - if your club did not receive the AGM pack please contact our secretary or myself as soon as possible. Talks by Sue O'Connell and Peter Brisley We are offering you two  fantastic talks at 2pm in the afternoon - and they are free. Sue O'Connell will be telling us about her 'Travels in Ethiopia' and 'My Journey to an FIPF' and Peter Brisley will give us 'Miscellany' including architecture, abstractions and impressions of Japan. They have a digital presentation including AVs and lots of wonderful prints to look at. They are Fotospeed lecturers and Fotospeed will be there. Sue and Peter are two of the country's top travel photographers and their work is wonderful. You really don't want to miss the opportunity to see their work close up and have the chance to ask them questions. Both are members of Bristol Photographic Society. Exec Vacancies We still have an immediate vacancy for a Publicity Secretary. The Exec have been muddling through this year but it's not easy to both organise an event and write about  it or photograph it. You don't see the whole picture. Furthermore we are missing the more personal and interesting stories from our region - the achievements, milestones, club successes and activities - not to mention dedicated publicity for our own events. It's a fun role if you enjoy writing - there must be someone who'd love to give it a go! We are also giving a year's notice that we will need a new WCPF Secretary from October 2024. Stephen took on the role last year to support me as President and although he has enjoyed it, after a lot of thought he has decided not to continue for personal reasons. Event photography commitments, increased family responsibilities and chronic health issues mean that we will both be taking a big step back next year. The role of secretary is mainly involved with managing the WCPF Gmail account, organising our meetings and the taking, writing and distributing of minutes. Most of this work can be done remotely as all our meetings, other than the AGM and the March Council Meeting are held by Zoom. We have had a succession of very efficient secretaries over the years so everything is well-organised and in good order and Stephen will make the handover as smooth as possible. The WCPF really can't function without a Secretary which is why we are giving plenty of notice. Please give this some thought. Stephen will be happy to have no obligation chat if you want to know more. Kingswood Salver Saturday is also the hand-in for the year's Kingswood Salver - a print panel of 5 photos on a theme chosen by your club, featuring work from 5 different photographers. As someone who loves working in panels, this is one of my favourite competitions. Eddy and Pam Lane will be on hand to collect your entries in (don't forget to fill in the form online and send in your digital copies). Leo Rich will be judging the competition at Bovey Tracey on Saturday 11th November and giving a talk in the afternoon. https://www.thewcpf.com/kingswoodsalver2023 Make Southwest In the morning, after the AGM,  or at lunchtime, you could pop into Bovey and visit Make Southwest  where there is a beautiful exhibition called 'Responding to the Light:the diversity of Modern Photography' curated by Susan Brown FRPS. Exhibitors include Joe Cornish, Mandy Barker, Marianthi Lainas, Ray Spence, Susan Derges, Valda Bailey and Charlie Waite. Sue will be there until 2pm if you'd like to say hello and talk to her about the exhibition. It runs until the 4th November if you can't make it next weekend. I hope to see lots of you on Saturday - I will try to be at the door to say hello although we are having a brief Exec meeting at 930am so apologies if you arrive when this is in progress and I can't greet you personally.

    • Jacob’s ladder booklet Here are the instructions from ‘Making Handmade Books’ by Alisa Golden.  It is for a three panel version.  There is a five panel version in the book, & in principle, I expect you could make longer panels once you have grasped how the structure works. The book has all sorts of different bindings, structures etc, of varying levels of practicality & design.  It is not specifically about photography, although it could be used for that purpose. I’d recommend it if you are interesting in making books which are out of the ordinary, & look very hand-crafted, rather than anything which could be printed commercially. For a good, general book on book making, I recommend ‘Making books: a guide to creating hand-crafted books’ by Goode & Yonemura, which is very clear & practical.Here are the instructions from ‘Making Handmade Books’ by Alisa Golden.  It is for a three panel version.  There is a five panel version in the book, & in principle, I expect you could make longer panels once you have grasped how the structure works.

    • Scapes Group – Field trip to Watermouth Bay Paul Marcus has kindly arranged a field trip to Watermouth Bay in North Devon, initially on Tuesday 10th October. Those that cannot manage weekdays may like to visit this location on Saturday 14th Oct. “Watermouth lies on the North Devon coast between Coombe Martin and Ilfracombe. It is accessible off the A399 heading West from Combe Martin or East from Ilfracombe.  There’s a car park on the Quay.  When I last checked the car park was open daily: £1.50 for 2 hours, £3 for 4 hours, £5 all day.  There is a café there but its opening hours are a little irregular and for that reason, and in case a longer walk on the coast path seems attractive, I’d advocate a packed lunch. There is lots of interest local to the bay at both high and low tide: boats, good rock formations, a headland walk and a lookout. Following a short but steep climb to Widmouth Head there are many very good viewpoints of the headland looking East across Combe Martin Bay to Hangman Point and Little Hangman Hill. There are attractive small bays off the coastal FP heading West.  For devotees of long exposures, if the seas are at all rough they break on Sexton’s Burrow at the NW end of the bay.  I have attached a map with some key photography locations highlighted.  Note the caves to the East of the bay also.  High tide that day is at 17.06 BST.  As the nights are drawing in I suggest we meet at the quay car park at 11.00.  After looking around locally and then having lunch we could move to a high point as the tide rises.” PaulPaul Marcus has kindly arranged a field trip to Watermouth Bay in North Devon, initially on Tuesday 10th October.

    • Scapes Zoom evening 12th Sept. 2023. Hi Scaper's As many volunteers are away twixt now and then, this is an early notification of our next Scapes Zoom evening on Tuesday 12th September 2023. As usual please email your images re-sized and named as below to Dave Dummett at david.dummett1@gmail.com no later than Saturday evening 9th September 2023. As Dave is soon away on holiday, receipt of your images may not be notified until late on the Sunday. Once again Paul McLoughlin has kindly volunteered to host this meeting. Thank you Paul. NOTE: your images need to be shown sequentially, so PLEASE put your name BEFORE the numbering: Example: Your-Name_01-###, Your-Name_02-###, etc. Do choose a sensible number of images to get through in your five-minute slot to allow discussion time! The Zoom link for the Scapes 12 Sept. 2023 will be emailed to you later along with a reminder. Please note: For the group to continue successfully as it is, more volunteers to host an occasional evening will be necessary. Fortunately hosting is not a demanding task, mainly because we are blessed with Dave Dummett who kindly receives and collates our images ready for presentation. The Host’s primary task is to introduce the evening at 7.30pm and ask if there are any notices. Then start the show while keep an eye on each presenter’s time keeping (normally a 5 minute slot). Try to ensure the meeting finishes by 9.30pm and finally thank everyone. Although there are notification emails and a Zoom URL reminder to be sent out, our current regular volunteer hosts are happy to action these for any new volunteers. If any are prepared to step forward and have a go, please contact either myself adrian@t1000.co.uk or Anne Whiteley whiteleyanne61@gmail.com Looking forward to seeing what everyone has been up to!

Although there are notification emails and a Zoom URL reminder to be sent out, our current regular volunteer hosts are happy to action these for any new volunteers. If any are prepared to step forward and have a go, please contact either myself adrian@t1000.co.uk or Anne Whiteley whiteleyanne61@gmail.com Looking forward to seeing what everyone has been up to!
