Leigh go Dutch

Go wild

Leigh on Sea CC recently hosted Fotoclub Maasstad from Rotterdam and the two clubs recently had their first international competition. This is a special year for both clubs as they were both formed in 1929 so are celebrating 90 years of photography. Six members from Fotoclub Maasstad attended a full club room to see the DPI images and the judge’s comments were read out together with the marks awarded. Robert Van Agthoven interpreted the comments for our visitors. The result was a

narrow victory for Leigh but the highest number of marks for an individual photographer went to Marly Smit of Maasstad. During their time in the UK the members of the Maasstad club were looked after by Leigh members and that included a photo trip to London, covering Portobello Road, Borough Market and the South Bank. The two clubs now have a date for a return competition next year with Leigh members visiting Holland.

Peter and Sue Jones of Clay Cross CC and Patricia Kearton of Northallerton CC are holding an exhibition of their work 2 to 28 September. Wildlife from around the world will be held at the Patchings Art Centre, Oxton Road, Calvertan, Nottingham NG14 6NU. Entry is free.
