Whether an amateur or a pro all are welcome to share their photos taken throughout Vale of Glamorgan - providing they're respectful to other members in the group.

The club is growing, with more than 270 members, regularly sharing their photos of a whole range of subject matter; it's hoped that as the group gets bigger we can introduce themes and challenges.

Along with offering people the chance to share their work in a friendly community, and get tips if desired, photos may be used (with credit) in our newspapers (Barry & District News and Penarth Times) along with in our weekly camera club spreads which go in print and online.

Click through the photo gallery at the top of this page to see some of the wonderful work shared recently.
