About Bury Photographic Society
Bury Photographicy Society
Formed in 1882, Bury PS is a local camera club which has a wide range of events throughout the year with something to suit every style of photographer. We pride ourselves on providing a welcoming and supportive environment to help all our members improve their photography at whatever level.
We run competitions through the year, have guest speakers who talk to us about their specialisations, battles (friendly competitions!) with other local camera clubs and host our own evenings to share our knowledge and skills.
We also have a number of special interest groups (SIGs) which concentrate on specific types of photography, and through sharing our knowledge and skills we help each other to improve.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced photographer, you will find a warm and friendly welcome at our weekly meetings.
There’s no charge for trying us out so why not come along for a taster session?
