  • Last week’s meeting – JP Stone: Story Telling for the Photographer JP Stone is a British-born photographer who, for the past eight years, has been living and working in Mexico. He was ‘zooming’ into a chilly autumnal Band Hall from the sweltering heat of Sayulita on the Mexican Pacific coast.

     

      

  • For someone who left school as soon as he could with little or no qualifications, Craig had the air of a philosopher in terms of his photographer. He saw an approach to photography as more important than the end product. His attitude to his subject matter – wildlife – was equally philosophical. Ethics and respect were his guiding principles: nature needs our love was his mantra.

  • I hope you have all had a good break and have many photographs to share for our new season.

Les has also prepared a varied and stimulating programme for us all.

     

      

  • Mark is a highly successful award-winning sports photographer and he started his talk with a slide show set to music which featured some of his favourite shots.

     

      

  • Dave started his talk with superb shots of birds: owls, gannets fighting over food, ospreys lifting off the water with a catch, Olly the cuckoo at a secret location near Guildford (first sighting of a cuckoo this season!), a magnificent sea eagle, snowy owl, a group of oyster catchers perfectly composed, puffins from Skomer Island, and more.

     

      

  • Chris’s talk was a refreshing counter to those tired old camera club commandments that get trotted out on a regular basis.

     

      

  • Joe gave us a quick run-down of Lightroom 12.2 and some of the tools he would be using.
