DIPLOMACY and political wrangling almost cost a Whalley schoolboy his chance


of the trip of a life-time. After two years of planning, Matthew Smith (14), of King Street, endured an anxious


wait by the telephone to find out whether he could board his flight to the 19th World Scout Jamboree in Chile, which was just hours away.

how dull photographs had been improved by selecting and highlighting, releasing the potential seen by the photographer when press­ ing the shutter. Early and successful pictures manipu­


lated in the darkroom by hours of painstaking work were shown, now repro­ duced in 15 minutes work on the computer. Was the recent work any less valid because it had taken less time to produce when the results were similar? It was interesting to hear

the comments made by members of the Pendle Print Circle, a group of dis­ tinguished local photogra­ phers drawn from several local clubs. Their views were often unfavourable but just as valid as the interna­ tional judges who had awarded high distinctions to some of the images. Often the views of commen­ tators not only reflect their personal tastes, but also the context in which the prints


posite photographs were often taken from a number of locations. This does not matter in the context of a pictorial photograph. No one has ever claimed that this type of photograph was necessarily "true" as a record or natural history subject should be. However, Mr West asked where the borderline was between a photographic image and a pattern, based originally on photographic images. He confessed that some of his complex work was done for fun and he was pleased to realise that it was recog­ nised as such and enjoyed by overseas judges. Howev­ er, he was coming to the conclusion that his


motto,"keep it simple", had a lot of truth and was mov­ ing away from complex pic­ tures to colour/ mono­ chrome combinations and even back to monochrome alone. He felt that he was understanding finally when "it was time to stop." Per­ haps the most important button on the computer, he suggested, was the one marked "undo"! The next meeting will be

MEMBERS or the Rotary Club of Clitheroe danced the nigltl away to a hand featuring their president. Scott Daniels and the Buckbcnls


played for a 'sixties- style Valentine dance mil by the.club at Clitlieroe's Catholic Social Club. Rtn Barrie Lancaster's skills on the


electric guitar supplemented his fund­ raising commitments as current presi­


dent, and the sell-out event raised £1,200 for the Rotary movement’s Life Education campaign. It helps warn children of the dan­


gers of substance abuse, using profes­ sional methods and specially- designed trailers. A raffle helped swell the evening's


proceeds and a hot sapper was enjoyed.


Members of the Backbcuts have


been playing together for nearly a decade, covering much of the North. Several have strong local connections and the Rotary event was a charity gig for them. Mr Lancaster is pictured at the back


and the others, from the left, are Terry Kearns, Scott Daniels, Michael Sher­ lock and Tony Hate. (140299/17/7)
