March Photo Topics – Flowing Water & Curves

Starting in 2018 we are asking our members to submit images around 2 monthly topics. This is a opportunity to share images on a more informal basis and get everyone more involved in sharing images.

This month is Flowing Water and Curves.

Send your favourite 3 pics to sharemypics@wps.org.nz by the last day of the month. All submissions will be included in a short presentation of images at the first club meeting of the following month.
