Caught Red Handed
Many thanks to the members that answered my request for red garb.
My camera club has monthly competitions with a different topic each month.
The April competition is “red” and I plan to put in the attached photo.
The judging is on the 16th of April so I will tell you how I went on the 17th.
 
Thanks again
PP Phil Maxwell

Join us at the premier event celebrating International Women's Day in Melbourne's eastern suburbs.

The theme is "Women of Diversity - Success Against the Odds" and our expert speakers and MC will ensure that we are challenged, charmed and entertained!  It will be a fun event with a delicious breakfast, lots of friendly banter and the ever-popular raffle.
