Will we love your images? One-to-one critique sessions

1. Bring in 3 images, by way of Print or DPI that you would like feedback on. Please bring DPI images on a Laptop, Tablet or Phone – we only have a limited number of laptops to use if the image is on a USB key.
2. There will be tables set up with randomly chosen members sitting at each one.
3. Choose one of your images to present to the other member at the table for friendly, constructive feedback.
4. Members will be rotated to sit at each table for 3 minutes to either give or receive feedback. At the end of each interval a bell or whistle is given to alert members to move onto the next table.

ZOOM Presentation

Speaker – Sue Clark LRPS CPAGB AWPF

Image manipulation, now often colloquially called “photoshopping” is nothing new and not restricted to digital images, it has been done since “imaging” was invented.
The camera may not “lie” – but the photographer can “alter the truth”.

Mike will be discussing all sorts of photography and techniques and the talk is split into 2 parts with straight photography (Documentary, Street, Sport and Projects) in the 1st half and more creative/created images in the 2nd, including for a couple of the images, how Mike planned the construction and the thought process involved to get to the finished image.
