The Bolton Camera Club meets weekly throughout most of the year and gives a very warm welcome to visitors and new members. We have been sharing a passion for photography since 1884 and are more than happy to share with you, whether your interest is in film or digital, audio visual or more technical aspects of photography.
Our second PDI competition this year took place on Thursday 17 March, and we enjoyed the company of Rebecca Entwistle from Prestwich Camera Club to be our judge.
Rebecca said the quality of the images was high, making her job that bit more difficult. She gave each image due consideration and a score, along with constructive comments and tips for possible further improvements.
The top scoring images were as follows:
Advanced Level:
"Morning Mist, Glen Affric" by Mike Williamson "Ballet Dancer, Miss Erica Mulkern" by Alan Bromiley
Intermediate Level:
"Misty Morning" by Sheila Wicks
Club Level:
"Sally Lightfoot Crab" by Yvonne Casselli
Our thanks to Rebecca Entwistle, and our congratulations to these members.

We enjoyed our first print competition for two years on 17th February, and welcomed our judge, Keith Barber, from the Swinton and District Photographic Society.
Judge Keith admitted he felt the overall quality of the prints was very high, making his task difficult. He rose to the challenge, holding everal back in the process, and gave positive and helpful comments to each print as he scored them out of 20 points.
