Thanks for posting those here. For me, WhatsApp only works for small chats and low-res snaps, and even then it's a pain...

They are both smashing images.  Which one would you prefer to go into the Members images process.

Unfortunately videos don't always work.  I wish more people would look on the forum.

Carole, maybe the second shows more detail and will look better in the Hall?

If links to forum posts or gallery pictures were used in the OAS WhatsApp group it would generate cross traffic and drive up awareness among the membership. They are used to WhatsApp but a forum is strange old tech from the dawn of the internet ;}

And the pictures are superb Roberto.

IMHO It may be worth knocking up a brighter version to project with more contrast even though it wouldn't look good on a monitor it would project nicely.

Good idea Duncan.  Though l think Roberto posted on Whatsapp a while before posting on the Forum.
