January 2018 – Daily Photo Challenge

The New Year begins with January 2018 and the service of the RMS winding down.  We snap the Charabanc one of the most popular tours, and at HLE airport we capture selfie takers. People enjoying Friday afternoon sundowners and live music at Rosie’s Bar and Restaurant was the perfect place to hang out on Day 19.

2018 heralds two big projects for #WTSDN; ‘First Generation’ photography exhibition and the MSH2018 pageant, see the behind the scenes pictures as we work on both.

What a varied set of January 2018 pictures, let’s see what the rest of the year brings!
