Usually 4th Friday of every month but event specific - and Jan 2026 is 3rd Friday

The "10.00" is when we usually meet for coffee at a location. There is nothing stopping anyone getting there earlier. We also try to car share.

Note: If the group status is not shown as "active, open to new members" and you want to be put on a waiting list or enquire about the group, please contact the Group Contact.

If interested, the national u3a runs photo projects that all members can enter. Click here for information.

See below for this year's programme.

The Photography group covers all aspects of digital photography whatever your choice of camera:  DSLR; mirrorless; compact; or even mobile phone.  Most of us would like to get more out of our camera or editing software, and this is what this friendly group is about, enjoying photography and helping each other to improve.

All levels of photographic ability are welcome.  Through the use of the group's Google Photo albums, we are able to share and ask for feedback on images.  (See guidance.) Specific help may be available to those who want to improve particular skills in taking or editing photos. 

During warmer months, there are visits to interesting places, often with fun photo challenges.  In winter, we are usually indoors covering selected topics or sharing photos.

Think you might be interested?  Join us on a visit to see what it is like.  Feel free to contact me and I will gladly answer your questions.
