ANYONE can pick up a camera and take a photograph.

But it takes real technique, skill and practice to do it as well as our Camera Club members.

We are not saying there is anything wrong with amateur photography just for fun, but just look at these snaps.

Each and every one is bursting with colour, with each and every pixel crisp and clear.

Those interested in joining the club can do so at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/669613876911778/.

Photos posted here may be used in the Hampshire Chronicle and its respective publications, websites and social media channels. By posting pictures in the group, you give consent for publication.

Portraits, landscapes, wildlife shots, human interest images and news pictures – we welcome it all.

This is not a competitive page – it is simply for fun.

Not all photos make it into the paper.
