Special Interest Groups
Forum rules
Not everyone in the club has the same interests as everyone else. To cater for this, several sub-groups have been started to concentrate on specific genres. Usually, they will meet informally on a night other than Thursday. If you have an interest in any of these groups, please contact the member identified as leading the group.
Group meetings will take place on nights other than the normal Thursday club night and will be held - where possible - at a 'venue of no cost' such as a local pub. Our favourite is the Great Malvern Hotel (Graham Rd., Malvern - by the traffic lights, town centre), who love us because we meet there a lot, they sell us beer and charge us nothing for the room we use. If a group becomes too large for their room (greater than 15, say) we will need to hire a room at the Vale, which willcost the club so is a last resort.
In the same manner as other club activiites, there is no need to state your desire to attend any SIG - just turn up. If you are not a member, the usual £3 visitor fee will apply for up to four meetings

Photo Cafe
The idea of the Café is to provide an opportunity for members to meet informally to talk about photography, there is no prepared, formal input. If members have any questions or things they need help with then they are encouraged to come along and, if appropriate, bring cameras or laptops and we will try and thrash out any problems together. A wide variety of issues and questions can be addressed, such as regarding technique, equipment, software etc. and members, regardless of their expertise and experience are encouraged to attend. Each Café will need a few experienced photographers to come along and provide some help and support. - 25 Topics
