Zoom Guest Speaker : Rosemary Wilman from Surrey
“My current lecture, ‘The Way I See It’, includes images from a number of the modules listed under Lectures. In some, by showing a series of images rather than just those that are for me the most successful, I try to provide ideas for less experienced photographers. I enjoy evenings with an interactive audience, with questions and discussions throughout.”
Facebook Photo Competition: Bees and other Insects #Insects
Annette Murty
Oct 22nd
Guest Speaker : Paul Stanley from Dublin.
“I am a travel and street photographer, but I also dabble in Long Exposure photography, principally coastal and architectural. My typical presentation covers a selection of my recent images from all of these genres.”
