Our pictures
This section is for our members' work. We range from highly experienced photographers to those who are relatively new to photography. Maybe seeing some of their work and this diversity will help you decide to come along and join us.
Club members should read the guidelines for submission.
2025 Annual Exhibition
Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope Gallery is hosting our 2025 Exhibition, with huge thanks to Ros and Sue of the Sevenoaks Visual Arts Forum. As well as the main Exhibition inside the Gallery we have again made use of the display units on the mezzanine area just outside of the Gallery. This year we are showing a selection of members' photographic triptychs, together with some railway related prints that we thought would link with the national 'Railway 200' celebration of 200 years of passenger rail.
2024 Annual Exhibition
Once again The Kaleidoscope Gallery, Sevenoaks hosts our 2024 Exhibition courtesy of the Sevenoaks Visual Arts Forum. We have included in the Gallery's Mezzanine display area some prints on the themes of Street and Black & White photography which members have pursued over the last couple of seasons. We have also shown some other uses our members have made of their pictures, eg, calendars, books, cards, coasters, etc.
Darent Valley project 2022-23
Over 2022-23 we undertook - in association with Darent Valley Community Rail Partnership - a project to create New Views of the Darent Valley. This produced an exhibition in May 2023 and the whole project was shortlisted for the national 2024 Community Rail Awards.
Club Platinum Jubilee Photobook 2022
2022 was not just a 70th anniversary for The Queen, it also marks 70 years since the creation of Sevenoaks Camera Club. To celebrate this we have created a photobook using members' pictures. Many thanks to Susan Wilkinson for all her efforts in making the book.
You can see a short preview of the book on the Blurb website. If you wish to buy one it is selling at cost price. It should also be available at Sevenoaks Bookshop.
We sent a copy of the book to Her Majesty in August, and received a nice acknowledgement via a Lady in Waiting, dated just four days before the sad death of Her Majesty.

Photographing the renovation of Bat & Ball Station 2018-2019
In 2018 and 2019 volunteers from the Club recorded the renovation of the original Victorian railway terminus for Sevenoaks. We have a short summary of our Bat & Ball project, including a few of the 1500+ photographs taken and a downloadable project review of what for us and Sevenoaks Town Council was an important and rewarding project. There is also a link to the photobook produced of the work.
