We're a friendly group of people who enjoy photography and meet regularly to show and talk about our photos.
Come along to one of our meetings - you'll be made welcome, and if you want to improve your photo skills we'll be happy to offer help and encouragement.
See below for our upcoming and most recent events or take a look at our Programme for this year. For more information about the club go to the About Us page.
Our December Show and Tell meetings are slightly different to the those the rest of the year. We don't have a theme and also dispense with Images of the Month, substituting instead Images of the Year. These are photos taken by members throughout 2024 that they haven't submitted before. This gives us an opportunity to show the images that didn't fit into any of this year's themes. This month we're also inviting members to submit prints - up to three in lieu of digital entries.
As another incentive to come along we'll be having Christmas food and drink goodies.
Don't make Santa put you on the naughty list - submit your photos by 9pm on Wednesday 20th November - either upload to Dropbox or by email to members@whphoto.club.
All our future themes and our other events are on our 2025 Programme page.
The last talk in our programme for this year was about something completely different from any subject we've covered before - underwater photography.
Roland Puleston Jones presented his illustrated talk about this fascinating subject. He showed some of his underwater images and explained the techniques and equipment he used to capture them.
Details of our activities for next year are on the 2025 Programme page.
No, we weren't harking back to the days of bloom-wielding hippies for November's Show and Tell theme of 'Flower Power', but to the beauty and intricacies of flowers.
The power of flowers is not just evident in their appearance, but also what they mean to us. This is demonstrated by Alastair Bell's poignant poppy-bedecked bridge photo on the left.
Take a look at the other Flower Power photos submitted by members on November's Members' Images page.
For our penultimate talk this year we welcomed Nigel Spencer to present 'An Evening of Wildlife Photography' to our members and guests.
Wildlife photography is quite rightly very popular, not just because of the enchanting images, but also because of the desire of many photographers to take one themselves. Those of us who have tried know how hard this is, but Nigel's superb images made it look easy.
For details of this and our future events have a look at our 2025 Programme pages.
10 years! Where did all the time go?
Our 10th anniversary Photo Show took place in the charming All Saints' church, West Haddon, as usual. Throughout the church there was an exhibition of over 100 prints submitted by photographers from near and far, and a rolling display of digital images played whilst we were open.
This year we invited the pupils of West Haddon Primary School to submit their images and we also ran presentations during the afternoon of each day to help you improve your photography.
We asked all our visitors to vote for their favourite print and digital image - this year again there was a prize of a £20 voucher from Picture Perfect for the ones with the most votes. This year the favourite images were: Print Category - Buzzing by Caroline Bradbury (left), Digital Category - Badger by Francis de Clermont (see our Photo Show page). Congratulations to them!
Our 2025 calendar, containing photos taken locally by our members, sold out during the show - thank you to everyone who bought a copy.
Members of West Haddon Photo Club were on hand each day to answer any questions about Photo Show, West Haddon Photo Club and photography in general.
