Group Trip to Melbourne

On Monday a small group of club members made the short journey over the border into Derbyshire for a meet up at Melbourne Hall to take some photos around the area. The sun wasn’t playing ball early on so it was hot drinks and a chat whilst waiting for conditions to brighten up.

Luck was in and the sun came out, so it was up and at it again with the cameras taking shots in and around the Hall then off into the village. It was all then capped off with a well earned drink in one of the local hostelries. A good day was had by all and some of the images are included in this report.

It is hoped to make these trips a regular feature on the first Monday of each month and for March the plan is to visit Foxton Locks which is sure to have some great opportunities.
