11th February – Zoom talk in the hall “Altered reality” by Jane Lazenby

Jane is a well-known artist and photographer.  She says “My love of art led to a fine art degree and many years as an artist specialising in portrait human and animal. I found a love for teaching and supporting others and qualified to teach in Further and Higher Education. Throughout this time my love of photography grew, and alongside that, my creative soul grabbed Photoshop and ran.  I adore romance, creativity, intrigue and originality. My background as a painter allows me a unique artistic interpretation and style to my images which have met critical acclaim both nationally and internationally!”

18th February – Members project evening

An informal evening to see and discuss the outcome of the members themed project challenge. Entrants can submit either a small number of images or a 2 minute AV on a range of different topics.  This is a first of this type of evening so we look forward to seeing some fascinating images. 

25th February – Annual nature competition judged by Louise Hill

A chance to see some wonderful nature images by members.  Louise is an excellent judge who has visited us many times before

4 March – “The little print show” by Jonathan Vaines

 Jonathan says – “After purchasing my first camera in 2011 photography soon became my newfound hobby and quickly turned into a significant part of my life.  It’s a part I believe helps maintain a healthy wellbeing and provides a creative release.  I am proud of the numerous successful image acknowledgements including being invited to become a member of The London Salon”  His talk covers an artistic approach to photography, stepping out of the club mainstream.  Along with individual images we see motivational benefits of working with Projects, Sets and Groups of image .  Most of his images are created using “in camera” techniques and the focus of the evening is about “Thinking Inside The Box”.
