Belle does me proud!

For the past few weeks I've been a member of the Wellfield Camera Club here in Stoke. The club meets every Thursday evening, either at the community centre in Bentilee or away at a pre-determined shooting location - the shoots at Cheddleton railway station and at Rudyard Lake in recent weeks have been through the Wellfield Camera Club.  I'm meeting fellow photography enthusiasts and learning new things, which is exactly what I wanted to get from joining!

One of the agenda items of tonight's session was the voting on the Pic Of The Month competition, with all members having been invited to submit up to two shots for consideration.  The entries are put into an online album, and then at tonight's meeting the members were asked to list their top five.  The votes were tallied and the top five shots were announced.

This was my first time entering the competition, and I'm very chuffed to have been awarded first place for my shot of Belle the barn owl in flight!:

Many thanks to those who voted for the shot, and congratulations to all whose shots were entered into the competition!
