Septembers Improver’s Group Review

On October 16, 2015

This review is long overdue. My apologies, but I was without internet for 4 weeks and it seems to take ages to catch up.

Our September Improver’s Group with Tony Myers was a great success. I received excellent feed back from those members who attended. It seems you liked the the split session with Tony sharing his photographic expertise and the wonderfully honest and constructive critiques he gave to the members who brought in their images.

A big thank you to Tony for giving up his precious time. A very informative Improver’s Group.

Thank you Tony.
