     •     Tea/Coffee Break           

          

     •     After Our Break

          
          ∙       Tonight we’re taking our cameras on a walkabout through the historic town of Boyle
                  Each member will be given a fun photography task — a great way to learn, enjoy photography, 
                  and interact with fellow members in an outdoor setting.
                  Be sure to charge your batteries in advance and join us for a relaxed one-hour stroll around town. 
                  There’s no shortage of photographic opportunities throughout Boyle, and a little photo challenge 
                  is the perfect motivation to get moving, explore, and capture something creative along the way.
                  Afterwards, we’ll return for a cuppa and our monthly slideshow presentation.
