A DALES camera club’s annual exhibition opened with a visit from a special guest.

Rishi Sunak, MP for Richmond, called in to The Old School House (TOSH) arts centre in Leyburn to view the Wensleydale Camera Club’s latest show.

The display, in the upstairs gallery at TOSH, features a wide-ranging selection of images taken by the club’s 20 members.

They include pictures taken in Syria before the war, portraits, wildlife and landscapes featuring the Dales and further afield.

Mr Sunak was shown around the display by club members, including Michael Kentish.

Mr Kentish said: “Mr Sunak asked many questions about the history of the club, its activities and members, and about the images on display.

“We are immensely grateful to Mr Sunak for his visit and support.”

Mr Sunak said: “I was very impressed by the variety and the quality of the pictures in the exhibition. Many of them are absolutely stunning.”

The exhibition runs until Monday, September 11.
