The Pictorialist Group returns to Cambridge University Botanical Gardens this autumn.

On Saturday 10th September at 10:10am we will gather at the Garden Cafe in Cambridge University Botanic Gardens. We plan to spend the morning exploring the gardens, hopefully photographing exotic species and the glass houses in unusual ways!

This will be followed by lunch in the Garden Cafe at 1pm. Members can then continue exploring the gardens until it shuts at 6pm.

Members will need to buy their own ticket for the gardens as well as bringing £1 for club insurance.

The gardens’ website can be found here where tickets can be booked in advance, although this is not a requirement. The cost of entry for one adult is £7.50, which includes an optional 10% donation. Without a donation the cost of entry is £6.80.

Please look out for Dave & Joan as they will be leading this outing.

Please note:
Don’t forget to check the arrangements before setting out if there has been extreme weather overnight.

About the Pictorialist Group

The group embraces a wide range of experimental and craft based techniques including paper making, wet photographic processes, infra-red; x-ray; vintage equipment and lenses, alternative lenses, and alternatives to lenses, such as pinholes or even alternatives to conventional cameras! 

All in the interests of creating something beautiful, interesting or both.

Please remember, our group can only be as good as the input made by its members so if you are willing to organise or lead any kind of event that you think will be of interest to members, please step forward. Please don’t be shy – all offers of help will be greatly appreciated…!
