    - - Welcome to the 2021-2022 season of Winchester Photographic Society.
        
        We provide a wide ranging program of speakers who will both inspire and educate.
        
        We run a series of competitions (both print and digital) which are a great way to have your work appraised by an external judge and learn to improve your photography.
    - - We have several Special Interest groups run by our experienced members which provide an informal space to discuss and share your work and ideas with others.
        
        There is a lot going on at our club so and we post regular updates on this website.
        
        Full details about membership can be found under the Membership tab.
