I hope everyone enjoyed last week’s session on lighting as much as I did. It was a bit chaotic at times but I certainly learned quite a bit about different ways to light a model and the impact that lighting decisions can make on the final image. Many thanks to Colin for organizing it and to […]

Well, another week and another attempt to find suitable superlatives to describe yet another brilliant evening at BPS last Tuesday. I’m going to have to buy a new thesaurus… Lucinda Grange’s presentation was captivating and her photos and escapades awe-inspiring (in the literal sense). Some of those images made my knees go weak just looking at them… I

Congratulations to all those that won awards, and thanks to everyone that entered. This coming Tuesday we also have

Something a little different last week on practical night – I hope everyone found something of interest. Our visiting artist seems to have had a very good response with members queuing up to share their photos and memories! For anyone that was interested in my system for scanning old photos and negatives, remember that I
