And there she is, the latest ADAPS Year Book, this time only taking me a day to make with Blurb books. When I say a day that was from first thing in the morning right through to evening, so a very long day! The same format was followed as previous years, with every member who subbmitted images having two in the book, plus five "Featured" members who had 5 images each.
I like to make sure there's a good selection of both old and new members so this year, we had Graham Otty, Joanne Johnson (very new), Len Hudson (very old?), Mel Barnes and Paul Jones.The front cover is by Andy Butler, known on ePHOTOzine as BydoR9. Mel Barnes does the interviews for me and shoots the "mug shots" of the featured members, so as he was chosen himself this year, his wife Gwen did the necessary in his case. Gwen has forgiven me by now (I think) for letting her name get mispelt once as Gewn in a previous edition.....sloppy proof reading!
We don't make a profit out of selling the book via Blurb, the intention is just to have a record of what the membership has been doing in any particular year. Now this is the tenth volume, we have built up quite an interesting photographic history of the club, so in future years there will be plenty of images for people to look back on.
Here's a couple from me.
