Dorset Camera Club has opened its annual exhibition of its best photos of the year at Dorset County Hospital

The exhibition will be on view from January 16 until April 28 in the corridor leading to Damers Restaurant at Dorset County Hospital,

More than 60 images from a wide variety of genres will be on show. Many of the prints are also on sale, with 30 per cent of the sale price being donated to Arts in Hospital.

Arts in Hospital is a small, charitable organisation based at Dorset County Hospital. It aims to enhance the healing environment, raise patients' spirits and give pleasure to all who are concerned with their welfare. ​

The programme covers a range of illustrated talks, practical evenings and the opportunity for members to share their work, as well as competitions and the sharing of images with an international flavour.

The Club’s standing in the Western Counties Photographic Federation is well-known, with members achieving success in both national and international competitions.

It is also committed to encouraging beginners, giving opportunities for photographers to excel in their chosen genre whether wildlife, landscape, street or using editing programs for a more creative approach.

Dorchester Camera Club meets at 7.15pm on Monday evenings at Brownsword Hall, Poundbury.
