Limerick Camera Club has announced the publication of its first historic book ‘Framed through Time – A Celebration of Limerick Camera Club 1943 – 2023’ in honour of their 80th anniversary. This publication serves as a momentous tribute to the many members who shaped the club’s remarkable 80-year journey from its inception to the present.

This unique book is more than a simple compilation of photographs; it’s the embodiment of our club’s lengthy history and our members’ collective passion for photography. ‘Framed Through Time’ is a visual narrative of our dynamic evolution over eight long decades, presenting a curated selection of our members’ most compelling work that exhibits the diversity in representation, style, and approach that defines the Limerick Camera Club.

Showcasing the camera club’s rich heritage the book pays homage to its past and present members. Their passion for capturing life through a lens is echoed throughout its pages, highlighting not only their individual talents but also the enduring spirit of the club itself.
