Norman on Location
The Camera Club is again participating in Sherborne In Bloom this year and our member, Norman Crabb, is contributing some photos of local food production.
To this end, Norman went on location to photograph a local beekeeper.
Beekeepers have to wear protective gear and so do the photographers who shoot them, so Norman was duly togged up in the necessary garb:
Some of Norman’s photos from this assignment can be seen on his blog Norman Crabb Photographer (www.normancrabb.com).
Great stuff!
Sherborne Station Exhibition (cont’d…)
Last Saturday was the 150th anniversary of the opening of Sherborne Station. To commemorate this important event a series of activities was organised, including the judging of our photography display on platform 2.
The Great and the Good, dressed in Victorian costume, were the judges:
Pictured here, beside the winning photograph, are Mayor Malcolm Boustead, Mayoress Dru Gurzynski, Mayor-elect Jane Smith and Philip Torjussen, Sherborne Station Master.
The winning photograph, of Bow Arch, was taken by Sherborne School pupil A. Broughton, who wins some free train tickets. Congratulations, that boy!
During the day the steam train 35028 Clan Line thundered through the station at speed. Camera Club member Betty Deavin snatched this quick photograph as the train approached the station:
A jolly day was had by all!
