LAST MEETING
Wednesday May 18^th
Discussing images from SPA’s 2020 Exhibition (not held)
We looked at the images selected for the 2020 Exhibition which was postponed initially to 2021 and then to 2022 and then cancelled.  We enjoyed many of the images and picked up some ideas for our future photography.  However, with a few images we were challenged with understanding why they were selected!

As part of our relaunch of the Society we have introduced a new logo produced and developed by Gokhan.  The landscape form of the logo is at the top of this email – and this is the square format. 
 
We hope the layout and colours will make it more eye-catching!  And thank you to Gokhan for producing the design for the artwork
