Galleries Working Again

Apologies for the long delay getting your monthly photo submissions onto the site. There were tedious technical troubles which have finally been overcome.

All the assignments (except for the last) are now available in the Assignments Gallery. Also, the photos from the last two Exhibitions are in the Exhibitions Gallery.

Have a browse, and let me know if you there are any missing or mislabelled images.

Virtual Assignments

Whilst we are all keeping apart and meetings are suspended, it seems the photographer in us all still wants to take and share assignments.

So I have set up a shared Google Drive for you to post your assignment images. I will add these to the usual gallery on the website as I receive them.

Please rename the files before you upload them with your name and the assignment title.

The link is distressingly long, but a single click will get you there:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DaRZX6G_0Lks7fO4XjddcFbwDil1oRuK

Once there, you should be able to drag and drop your photo files. I’m not sure how well this will work from a mobile or tablet. Suck it and see.
