The club has organised a weekend away to the Central Coast on 19 and 20 May. Accommodation will be at Avoca Beach Hotel and Resort. We plan to cover many genres of photography:
Henry Kendall cottage;
Japanese gardens in Gosford where the maples will be in their full autumn colours;
Matcham where oak and liquid amber trees are displaying full autumn hues;
Pelican feeding at The Entrance at 3.00pm for those who are interested;
Sunset at Long Jetty;
Landscape shots looking down to Patonga as well as looking out to Barrenjoey and Pittwater;
The old church at Kincumber;
Sunrise shots at Avoca;
Sommersby Waterfalls.
Picnic lunches. Dinner at the Avoca Beach Hotel and Resort or the pub, which is just down the road from our accommodation.
