Llangollen camera club - Fringe Festival exhibition - 18.7.2013



LLangollen Camera Club 


The Festival this year had the theme  "Trees and Forests".  Viewing was held again this year in the Royal Hotel. How the years fly by as this I think is the 5th exhibition the club has been asked to exhibit. The location is a great chance for many locals and visitors in the town to see the exhibition that was organised by Ann Murray.

Festival in the park at Rhyl - 18.8.2013





I had come across this event purely by chance as my family and I were in the tourist information in Rhyl. Despite the showers on the day we took a packed lunch and set out to find the venue. We were a little early so went for a walk amongst the many small stalls of crafts and "bric a brac". We even won some teddies in a tombola and not forgetting my favourite of home made cakes - which was a must for me to stop and buy.

This  beautiful hand crafted stall we came across and got chatting to the lady on the stall -Margaret.

Some dogs I presume ready for the competition


As for Bowls I wanted to capture a certain generation playing the game,that is why most are taken in sepia 














The mini remote-control police car was cool and amused many of the small children; it even had its own siren  


The showers didn't dent the brass band, it was lovely to hear them play


Undecided moment again for me as I like both images




This was a great suprise for me to see as I thought this renowned duo retired years ago. It was so nice to hear a new generation get involved in the show just as we did all that time ago.





I couldn't resist placing a guide link to the history of this tradition

There was an opportunity to go and have a close look at the helicopter, but because of the queues I didn't have chance to see that part. I was happy enough to take the images from afar. As per usual I have taken many images.







This day was was enjoyed by all of the family and great memories were made that day

This Event was the end show for all departments in Regent St. The three years was over and how fast it had gone too. Members of the public had a chance to see everyone's talent.  The Mayor, Councillor David Bithell and  his wife Mayoress Mrs Virginia Bithell, opened the show. Stuart Cunningham, academic head of the creative industries in the purple tie was present.

                                     Thank you to Stuart and Maurise for their hard work even after hours, for getting their departments ready. Thanks to Colin Sailsbury for help with the printing for the event.

There are many names in this end show that you will see more of in the future from the Creative Industry departments at Glyndwr's  Regent st.

Its a little hard to see but on these paintings in red there is a couple in the image; a nice touch added to them. I think life's journey can be linked to them.
