The Photography Group has continued to meet throughout 2020, moving to Zoom meetings from March. In addition to the monthly meeting we also organised a number of external speakers on different topics to ensure we kept in touch with group members. Unfortunately we were not able to organise the regular outings.

2021 has started under a new co-ordinator as David Pechey steps down after 5 years where the group has grown and gone from strength to strength under his guidance. We regularly have 25 members join the Zoom meetings.

2021 has a full programme of monthly talks, Monthly and Quarterly themes, where members are encouraged to "Get out with their Cameras". Members post these pictures throughout the month on the Group Facebook page for comment and this often leads to debate on how a photograph could be enhanced. Each month members submit their favourite picture and these are collated into a Photowall, links to these are available through the main Bramhall U3A website. New members with an interest in Photography (at any level) are most welcome to join the group.

The Photography Group continues to grow and now has more than 30 members with around 20 joining for each monthly meeting. Each month we have a photo theme for members to interpret and some of the results are posted as a photowall album which can be accessed from our U3A Photography Group web page (http://bramhallu3a.org.uk/groups/photography-gallery.html). We continue to enjoy monthly talks on all aspects of photography ranging from technical issues to artistic guidance and several members have contributed their experiences. As a Group we have visited a number of locations to try out techniques and support each other including this year to Anson Engine Museum, Salford Quays, Reddish Petting Farm and Lyme Park.
