It was an interesting first submissions night of the 2016-17 season with excellent discussions as usual, and great photos, making voting challenging. The club has implemented some new guidelines for the evening, which seemed to roll out smoothly for the most part (see the changes here).  Take a look at the gallery of winning shots here! http://stalbertphotoclub.com/blog/sapcgalleries
