Some money for something...

Does anyone have any ideas for a small project that we could apply for some money for?

Springwatch Photos



Finally...

I got round to posting on the blog! It's so long since I've been on that I almost forgot the password.

There are two things I think we should discuss on here. One was suggested by Leah ages ago - what are people's favourite places for taking photos round Sussex - the deadline for the photography competition is September so you should all be out trying to get some good pictures. I really like big open spaces and landscapes (but that's because my cameras not very good at doing small detailed photos). I also think it depends on how the light is more than what you'ree subject is.

The second thing is the votes from Springwatch - as those of you there might have guessed, the camping idea got the most with 55 votes, followed by the day in Stanmer park with 16 votes and lastly the bat wlak which got 13 votes. So, what do we do next? We'll be dicussing this at the next meeting so please come prepared with lots of ideas (bearing in mind that I only have about 6 more days of work before my contract ends and I'll be leaving :(

This means we're a bit limited, but I'm sure there's something you could do.

Anyhow, time for breakfast so ciao for now.
