We try to make our meetings interesting with various activities accessible to all
Leo's Lenses
Our IT manager, Leo Maxwell, has several hobbies, one of which is Photography.
He has been experimenting with Classic SLR lenses, which although they are unsuitable for modern DSLR cameras, can be used with adapters on Digital Mirrorless cameras. He brought some along to demonstrate at our 12th November meeting One example is shown below, beside an image taken with it at Millpool in Looe.
For those interested, more information is available on Leo's Blog
Peter's automata
One of our members, Peter Heywood, spends some of his time on art projects. He brought along a few examples of automata that he’s made to the 8th October members’ meeting.
The mechanisms of some of them are based on clothes pegs. An example of which is the flapping seagull shown here.
Why not check out Peter’s website, www.peter-heywood.co.uk which covers his creative adventures in inventing, designing and making all sorts of works of art (including some robot snakes).
The website is as much about HOW he made stuff as displaying the end results.
