In Spring 2010 Mick Page suggested that the club web site have a photograph as the background to its opening page. Thanks to Mick for the idea and the photographs, majority of which he has supplied so far.

The pictures below are those that have been seen. Contact Mick if you would like high resolution copies of the pictures you could use for printing. e-mail

Some experimenting was needed to try and take into account the variety of different sizes and shapes of screens on which the web site would be seen. If you have any pictures suitable for the front page background I would be pleased to hear from you. See the Size Information page for some semi-technical information about background pictures.
