An illustrated talk about the planning and execution of successful photographic trips. How to come back with competition images rather than holiday snaps !

I have been an enthusiastic photographer for most of my adult life, starting, as many people did, with film and producing prints and slides through the magical darkroom process. Digital imaging brought a whole new world and I wanted to embrace it fully with my photography by producing both digital images and fine art prints. The range of papers now available take digital printing to a whole new...

Tue 28 Sep 2021 - Zoom Meeting - Kieran Metcalfe BPE1* - Chasing the Light

7:30pm

Starting from the a realisation that light is cruical to engagement with a landscape photograph, I discuss the conditions I actively seek, the joys and pitfalls they bring and how sometimes, my favourite images are ones taken in less-than-ideal or unexpected situations.

As well as telling the stories behind a few of my images, I also unpack the processes I use both in the field and in the edit.

Tue 14 Sep 2021 - Zoom Meeting - E J Lazenby CPAGB LRPS DPAGB BPE4 EFIAP LMPA - Working with Textures

7:30pm

Answering all the what and how questions, I go through sourcing and creating textures , how to use blend modes and then 3 different methods of how to apply textures to an image.

After a short mid way break, I will do a live edit where I will take between 3-5 images previously supplied and apply textures from my own stock to create final pieces., narrating every click on route. I believe that seeing the process happen 'for real' is very valuable for viewers.
