It attempts to give a realistic portrayal of the life style of the ordinary people of India showing how they live and work. It is not an attempt to show the depravity that exists, but the true picture of a happy and friendly people who are happy with their lot.

Dave Russell AFIAP
This talk came about when I was asked to present an as yet untitled talk to a local camera club and their programme secretary put it down as “Dave Russell’s A to Z of Imaging”, so I put it together with that in mind. There is at least 1 topic for each letter of the alphabet, from Achilles to Zoom. It covers people pictures, landscapes, natural history and more, with a variety of straight shots and more creative images.

Most of Janet's work in this talk can be best described as photographic art.  Just about all of them are montage or at the very least using textures.  Janet is happy to share her 'secrets' and techniques.

Be aware that the presentation includes some very tasteful art nude work.
