From today (Thursday, August 16)

Millions of volunteers in over 150 countries are uniting to clean up the world in one day on September 15.

Show schedules and newspaper reports from the 1800s confirm that flower shows have changed very little in basic content.

Using colour in the correct way makes a photo compelling.

Nostalgia ruled as our first judging commitment of the season got under way on July 28 at Howick Village Show.

It’s show time for Forestburngate this weekend as the annual Simonside Country Fair takes place.

This was last week’s Remember When picture and we are still trying to put some names to faces.

Show season was in full swing this time 30 years ago.

Thanks to the power of social media, we have managed to name all the boys on this photo of Amble U13s five-a-side football team.

We sometimes see popular visitor attractions as somehow less attractive.

Although almost any type of plant material can be rooted in the large propagating box, I do prefer using a tray with coarse sand for indoor pot plant regeneration.

Propagating new plants from our existing tender, half-hardy and hardy collection continues throughout the year, but there are periods when we are spoiled for choice, and this is one.

My Dad gave me a copy of How To Make Good Pictures by Kodak.

It’s taking place again this weekend, and this picture from August 1988, shows youngsters enjoying the fun at Powburn Show.

A Rothbury mother recognised herself on this image from Rothbury Tennis Club in 1988 published on this page last week.

We published this photo of Amble U13 football winners from some time in the 1980s a couple of weeks ago.

It heartens me when we get great comments about the friendliness of Northumberland Camera Club.
