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.
We were pleased that Alastair contributed to our Photographic Journey series by giving us a talk about how his interest in photography developed.
Alastair is one of our most active, enthusiastic and knowledgeable members, and many of our members have benefitted from his generous offers of help and support. His photos are regularly voted as members’ favourites and his love of old cameras is infectious.
Illustrated by a selection of fine images and a supporting cast of cameras, Alastair lead us through his life with photography and how events, both fortuitous and tragic, shaped it.
He emphasised how important the social element of photography is: meeting fellow photographers, sharing skills and experiences – something we’re keen to embrace in WHPC.
This was an interesting and, at times, thought-provoking talk, much enjoyed by the audience.
For details of future events, take a look at our 2026 Programme.
Often in surprising places and sometimes taking strange forms, sculptures and monuments were our theme this month.
It’s estimated in the UK of statues depicting historical figures over 80% were of males. Did our members’ images reflect this? Have a look at the Sculptures & Monuments gallery page to find out.
We can reveal that the members’ favourite photo was Scallop, Aldeburgh by Colin Waite (left).
To see all the other images, including those submitted for our Image of the Month section, head on over to the Sculptures & Monuments page.
Which one would you have voted for?
Some of the most enchanting images shown at our Show and Tell meetings in the past have been of forests and woods, so we are eagerly anticipating our members’ images this month.
If trees aren’t our members thing, then they can follow their own path, or track…
Make sure you see the trees and the wood and take the path most travelled to submit your images by 9pm on Wednesday 18th March – either upload to Dropbox or by email to members@whphoto.club.
All our future themes and our other events are on 2026 Programme page.
We welcome back Ashley Franklin to present Part Two of his Wider World of Photography talk, exploring the history, style and impact that different genres photography have had.
Ashley presented Part One of his talk to us last year and it was a feast of iconic, powerful and thought-provoking images. He tied the images together with a clearly well-researched narrative that placed the photos in context.
Once again Ashley will illustrate his talk with the work of some photo greats. His last talk was most popular so we’re looking forward to this one.
Due to the level of interest in this talk we will be in the larger venue of West Haddon Village Hall, The Green, NN6 7AN – 7pm for a 7:15pm start. Tickets are available for £5 – email events@whphoto.club to reserve yours.
All our future themes and our other events are on 2026 Programme page.
For our first Knowledge Night of the year we were fortunate to have had a talk by Martine Hamilton-Knight, a renowned architectural photographer and Senior Lecturer at Nottingham Trent University.
