The Club is Changing!

At the Extraordinary General Meeting held on Tuesday, members voted unanimously to give the club a new, more modern name. 
It was felt that 'Camera' did not convey a modern feeling as it is the art of photography and the images produced that are what the club concentrates on.

‘Camera' implies that we all sit around comparing cameras, but the equipment used is not so important. Many former 'Camera Clubs' have also taken the decision to get more up to date as well. Nowadays many members use phones to take their images and when images are judged in competitions it does not matter how they were taken - it's the quality of the image that is important!
Over the next few weeks the clubs website, Facebook and Instagram will change to the new name of Devizes Photography Club. It was felt that more new members will be attracted to join the club as digital photography is very popular with all ages. You will still be able to get to the website using the present name but you will be diverted to the new website. You may like to save the new name in your favourites. All the changes will take a few weeks to become active. PM
