SETTLE Photographic Group’s annual exhibition was displayed in Clapham Village Hall over the August Bank Holiday weekend.

As usual the images had been on display in many of the shops in Settle before being gathered together for the exhibition.

The exhibition was opened on the Friday evening by Frank Higginson, a founder member and past chairman of the group.

Frank, who has moved away from the area, commented on the high standard of the images and emphasised how much he missed being part of Settle Photographic Group because of the way members’ talents are encouraged.

This year, as always, there was a wide range of subjects from a diving tern to a busy sandy beach, to landscapes and seascapes, steam trains, flowers, animals and more birds.

The exhibition was well supported by locals and tourists alike, as more than 400 people dropped in over the three days, some from as far as Canada and Holland.

All visitors had the chance to choose their favourite picture and their choices were just as varied as the photographs.

In addition to the printed pictures, there were many digital images to enjoy.

Tea was provided by Clapham Ladies in aid of Craven Cats Rescue, SOI Dog Foundation and Derian House at Chorley.
