This is the Programme for The Society's Year 2005/6 which we think contains some really good evenings (even the ones by members are said to be popular). We are experimenting with Critique evenings in place of some of our competitions and we hope more people will enter work into these and get valuable advice from experienced photographers who are no longer restrained to choose first, second and third.
