Although the room was a little small for the amount of people who attended of around one hundred and forty,\u00a0 experienced photographer Peter Austin of Alternative Images did a fantastic job of arranging all on stage where they could be placed. Unfortunately the stage length was a bit smaller than one would have liked for such a large group so the last remaining people who arrived had to stand on the lower carpet area. Not an ideal situation but sometimes trying to achieve something in an area that doesn\u2019t quite suit does have to have a compromise.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-766\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-766\" src=\"https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image-598x399.jpg\" alt=\"Admiralty Group\" width=\"598\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image-598x399.jpg 598w, https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/alternativeimages.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Admiralty-Blog-Image.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a>The afternoon was made up of interactive sessions within various rooms in groups and then later all gathered for a closing session in the main area.
