Harpenden Photographic Society chair Steve Collins said: "We’re delighted to be bringing back a physical print exhibition in 2023, after three years of being online only, and I am extremely excited that HPS will be showcasing some of the finest images from our talented members in this amazing collection of prints.

"As wonderful as images can look online, nothing beats the beauty of seeing fabulous photographic images that have been printed.

"Our exhibition is completely free to attend and suitable for the whole family."
