Our tongue in cheek "speed dating" night is one of the fun and very popular evenings on our programme.  Members bring their own work on a laptop or in prints, and show this to another person who will give feedback on the image for three minutes.  After feedback is given both ways, one person moves on to chat to someone else.

This gives everyone a chance to talk to people in the club that they might not normally chat to, and also gives plenty of opportunity for feedback without any judging.

A fun night

In the first section of his talk, Nick discusses mining photography that he researched to inform him about his own approach to the project. He also explains what free mining is and how he published a book of his work (there should be a few copies still available to purchase at the talk). After the break he will go through a number of his images, how he shot them and the challenges he faced. He finishes by talking about postproduction and printing, showing physical examples from his F panel which the audience is also encouraged to look at throughout the evening.
