Camera club shows off work
AMATEUR photographers’ work has gone on show at an annual exhibition.
Earl Shilton Camera Club’s show at the Atkins Gallery, in Hinckley, runs until September6.
A spokesman said despite the difficulties Covid-19 restrictions have presented, the club, which is in its 46th year, has had one of its most successful years.
Utilising technology such as Zoom has enabled it to continue weekly meetings and have guest speakers, and the technology has also allowed speakers from further afield to give talks.
District councillor Keith Nichols said: “It is fantastic finally that the Atkins Gallery can reopen its doors for visitors to come and view it’s many exhibitions.
“We warmly welcome back Earl Shilton Camera Club and I hope its exhibition will be well attended and residents of the borough, looking potentially to start a new hobby or want to develop their photographic skills take the opportunity to meet club members.”
Visitors can also view the contemporary artworks of local artist Tracy Slater.
