The farm has 2 types of lavender, the traditional deep purple and also a paler mauve. Hopefully we’ll be able to get some nice shots of the lavender rows lit by an evening light which should bring out some interesting colours.
The ‘cost’ of the visit is that each attendee must submit one or more post processed images to the owner so they can see how it’s done. They may also wish to use some images for charity cards.

CANCELLED – Village Challenge
Unfortunately, due to insufficient numbers, we are having to cancel this event.
To run the event successfully we need several teams of three or four to make it a fun evening, and we don’t have enough people registered to do this.
Meet in St Ives outside the free church at 7, we will then split into teams and be given a set of photographic challenge categories to achieve within St Ives.
After meet back at Floods Tavern for a refreshing drink and treats.
There will be prizes!
