| OCTOBER | ||||||
| 07/10/2024 | Talk | 5 Portrait Photographers | St Andrew's | Lawrence Homewood | https://www.kitsch.co.uk | This is part of my ACCESS TO PHOTOGRAPHY presentations looking at 5 distinctly different well known photographers, and how their styles differ from each other, showing you how they go about photographing their subjects and the end results. The idea behind this presentation is to inspire club photography and show how styles can be so different. We look at the work of David Bailey, Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz, Terry Richardson and Steve McCurrey. We critique 3 images hoping if possible to get audience participation or feedback. Finally I conclude this presentation with working examples taken in the Studio and on location. |

| 28/10/2024 | Talk | My Restless Lens | Zoom | Keith Snell | https://www.keithsnellphotos.com | This varied talk covers the broad range of my photographic interests, which include wildlife, portrait and figurative, abstract, and impressionist/expressionist landscape images. The restlessness is shown by my travels, but I also include images taken locally - in the Lake District National Park - and during lockdown. My lens is also restless because the camera is waved around to capture ICM and in-camera multiple exposure images. I describe the techniques and compositional approaches behind these and my other images. |

| 10/02/2025 | Talk | An Alternative Camera Manual | St Andrew's | Steve Kingswell | https://www.theimagingroom.com | This talk suggests we should learn so much more about how to express ourselves in photography rather than purely technique and guidelines. It suggests another way to consider how we look at photography. This talk aims to get you thinking about photography from different & new perspectives. Choose this talk if you would like something instructional for beginners through to experts, and some serious food for thought. |
