I joined the Wolverhampton Photography Society in the late 1990’s not exactly sure which year. I won my first competition in the season 2000/01 when I won the Outings Cup with a camera I borrowed from Len, my husband. After a while I had my own Camera, a Canon 300 film camera ready for a holiday to Canada. A tour from Montreal to Vancouver in September 2001. A few years later I had my first Digital camera a Canon EOS 350D I entered a competition at the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas. It was their first of what is now an annual event. A few weeks later I had a letter inviting me to the presentation of the Awards so Len and I went along and I was shocked to win the first prize with a photo called The Eleventh Hour which I’ve included here. The prize was a Benbow Trekker Tripod which was presented to me by Kay Alexander who used to read the news on Central TV - perhaps you might remember her. She was also one of the judges of the competition. I still take pictures today and enjoy our trips in both the UK and abroad. Always with a camera not far away.
