While scanning some 6x7 negatives recently I found this that will go into the New Brighton Photographic Club's history (second edition). Most likely from 1977 (possibly 1978).

It depicts Sylvia Lundy using her Rolleiflex (6 x 6, (or 2 1/4 square) black and white negative film) on a club portrait night at St. Faiths church hall in Hawke Street, New Brighton. Who was the "male model"? Note the Weston light meter hanging from her wrist.

Sylvia was the most succesful club member during the 1960s and 70s. She won just about every trophy going (slides and prints) during that period, including the Natural History print trophy (now called the Sylvia Lundy Tray) 11 times in 12 years.

Sylvia, was possibly the first New Brighton club member to join PSNZ (Photographic Society of NZ) as an individual member. She was awarded life membership in 1982, but returned to England after her husband Jack passed away in 1984, and passed away herself in 1989.
