It is my great pleasure and honour to welcome you to Winchester Photographic Society in this, our centenary year.The society was founded by keen amateur photographers to promote their shared hobby and to show their photographs to the public with an annual exhibition.
To celebrate our centenary, I’m particularly excited about the quality and range of speakers that we have for this season.
Many of our lectures are open to guests as well as members, and tickets for some events will be available for anyone to buy online.
Please do contact me or any of the Committee if you have comments during the season. You can use the Contact Us form on this website.
Regards,
Gordon Brown
President Winchester Photographic Society
Founded in 1923, WPS is one of the largest clubs in the southern region.
Our membership covers all levels of photographic skills, from absolute beginners who have yet to purchase a camera, to those who travel the world producing sensational images of people and places, flora and fauna.
As well as guest lecturers and competitions at our weekly Tuesday meetings, we offer workshops, tutorials and outings to help members improve their skills.
Our Tuesday meetings are 7:30-10:00pm at the Winchester Arc in Jewry Street.
We welcome all feedback about the Society: questions and comments, compliments and suggestions, and reports of problems which we will try to fix as quickly as we can.

Our Annual Exhibitions in 2020 and 2021 were held as online events.

We regret that we had to cancel WNE for 2020.

In the recently announced results of the International Annual Photography Awards 2020, Gavin Bowyer won an Honorable Mention in the Wildlife section for Baby Mountain Gorilla Missing its Mother.
Gavin wrote:
Delighted to hear this morning that I won an award in the Annual Photography Awards 2020 – Honourable Mention for my “Baby Mountain Gorilla Missing its Mother”.
The Annual Photography Awards are dedicated to preserving the craft as a contemporary medium of fine art, and is motivated to help artists rise in their careers.
The winning photos were selected from entries from 56 different countries.
Gorilla pictures can certainly evoke empathy – and if that helps the wildlife conservation effort then so very much the better. My favourite charity in this area is Conservation Through Public Health led by Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka
WPS was also represented in the 2nd Mount Makalu International Salon 2020
The tables of awards and acceptances are at http://www.hpsnepal.com/salon-result.php
The catalogue is at http://www.hpsnepal.com/uploads/2nd%20Mount%20Makalu%20International%20Salon-2020.pdf
The whole catalogue takes a while to download. Mike’s image is on page 55 and Corinne’s image on page 73.
