The natural world serves as a constant reminder that life is continuing and can also lift our spirits during these very difficult times.
‘New year, new hope’ is the current theme for our Camera Club and members and our talented photographers have been continuing to capture scenic and wildlife pictures to underline that we can look forward to better times ahead, but not forgetting those who have died during the pandemic. Scroll through this week's selection on this page.
The Watford Observer Camera Club is a Facebook-based group. It is open to all photographers – from those who snap pictures on their phones, to professionals who capture perfect shots with specialist equipment.
Every month, the camera club is set a new challenge, a theme is selected and then the work starts.
Search for Watford Observer Camera Club on Facebook. Ask to join the group and we’ll accept you.
