CANCELLED – Print Evening

Print Evening

We have unfortunately been informed by the Free church that they have a booking clash on 7th March when we planned to hold our Print Night.

After looking at a number of unsuitable alternatives we have taken the difficult decision to cancel the meeting.

We will now present the prints at the March Monthly Competition on 21st March and ask the Judge to provide Critique (no scores) of the prints after judging the competition.
For those of you wanting help mounting your print, we will have experienced members available before the meeting starts from 19:30 to demonstrate and assist.

Thank you to those who have entered, and we look forward to seeing the mounted prints on 21st March.

Creative Inspiration – Jane Lazenby

So many people say that they wish they had ideas, stories to illustrate and were creative. This presentation guides you to examine your own experiences and preferences to draw on in creating unique images….. The second half demonstrates a number of editing techniques such as textures, overlays, colour grading and composites, opening that door to creative expression and image creation.

Jane works on the same image in 3 different ways to show how to create emotion and narrative within your work.

Costa Rica, Coast to Coast – Gary Dean

Come and join me on a journey across the Central American country of Costa Rica. A small country that packs a punch when it comes to biodiversity.

In this talk we will visit the Caribbean and Pacific Coasts, wetlands , the rainforest and cloud forest, each of which has special tropical species like toucans, hummingbirds, tanagers, parrots and monkeys.

I will explain how I got some of the images and the challenges of photography in the rainforest.

Photography on the Darkside – Peter Benson

During this talk Peter takes us back into the history of Night Photography running alongside his family history in Photography and then on a tour around some of his favourite places for night photography in the UK.

He also shows some of the places he has been to further afield in cities like Dresden, Seville and New York.

During this journey he’ll be giving some hints and tips along the way, sprinkled with a bit of history about some of the places, so there is something for everyone.   https://www.peterfbenson.co.uk

Seeing Opportunity – Erica Oram

This talk is about making the most of limited time for photography by ‘seeing’ opportunity and by being a little creative both in camera and afterwards.
