from the RPS Collection at the National Media Museum - by Samuel Bourne

Thanks to Brian Liddy of the National Media Museum, (who many of you will have  met in 2009 at the Spring Weekend  in Buxton), the Group is arranging a special visit to view  some of the rare  travel  photographs held in the Royal Photographic Society Collection at the National  Media Museum. 
To make the most of the opportunity we have decided to turn this into a flexible and optional weekend visit . Group members will be welcome to attend all or only those parts of the weekend that they wish. 
Members will need to book there own accommodation if they require it but we will make a number of suggestions for suitable places to stay for all pockets.
Entry to the museum itself is free but the Imax theatre and catering in the Museum  are not. There will be a small admin charge by the group to cover the cost of organising the event.
