Heidi has a website!
Hot on the heels of husband Alec, Heidi Stewart is the latest Gwynfa member to open a website. It is full of her lovely photographs so why not pop along and have a look (and maybe leave a comment on her blog). Like Alec, Heidi used the free software available from weebly.com to create the site.
Alec Stewart has a new Website
Alec Stewart AWPF of Gwynfa Camera Club has a new website. Alec says “For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for the natural world. To this day I am constantly amazed at the diversity and beauty that surrounds us every day. A walk along a canal towpath or through woodland becomes an exploration to seek out the fascinating and varied plant and animal life existing in these habitats”.
