WELCOME to the camera club as we once again share pictures from this glorious part of the world we are fortunate enough to call home.

Nights are drawing in ever earlier and waking up to misty mornings is becoming the norm.

These changes provide us with some preparations for the winter ahead when we will all look to hibernate as best we can.

Socialising is still important of course.

Maintaining links with family and friends has become a greater test over the past two years of pandemic and lockdowns.

However few could argue the benefits of such efforts.

OTHER NEWS:

Since the last camera club the country has bid farewell to yet another Prime Minister.

Much debate since has included whether the time is right for a General Election.

These conversations will likely crop up in conversation for some time yet but thankfully we can distract ourselves in the beauty of our surroundings if we wish.
