2020-21 Season
The new season is well under way at the moment. The meetings are not what we are used to but are still a good chance to hear great speakers and to meet up with old friends, albeit virtually. We have some great talks lined up for the rest of the season so keep an eye on the programme. |

Diane Seddon - ‘Odd Things – Dare to be different!’
Diane is based near Louth in Lincolnshire, and has been making photographs for around 20 years - before that film, and processing in the darkroom. She has spent a good part of those years working as a commercial and event photographer, retiring in April 2018 to concentrate more on personal projects. A keen member of camera clubs for the last 15 years, she now judges for the North East Midlands Photographic Federation (NEMPF) and the Lincolnshire Photographic Association (LPA). Diane also gives talks to clubs throughout the county and beyond, and offers workshops and critique sessions for those who would like to enter competitions beyond the club, and also within the club. Here’s a link to Dian’s website if you would like more information about her: https://www.dseddonphoto.co.uk/ . |

Gerald Chamberlin - "Cars in the Forest (Sweden) & Invisible Light IR"
Gerald lives in Cumbria in the North of England and is a past chairman Morton Photographic Society in Carlisle. Although he captures a wide range of images in colour he finds himself now concentrating on monochrome and infra-red photography. “Cars in the Forest (Sweden)” is an intriguing title – shades of Top Gear, perhaps? We’ll see. Here’s a link to Gerald’s website if you would like to some examples of his photography: https://www.gmcimages.co.uk/ . |

Alfonso Ramundo - "Derelict Decadence - The story behind the ruins"
Alfonso is an Italian photographer who fell in love with the Scottish landscapes and decided to make Scotland his home. His passion for photography goes back to when he was a boy and received an SLR camera as a present. He was and still is completely fascinated by this art of painting with light and his eyes are always on the look for a place, a person, an object that captures his attention, because we all know that... "It’s not what we look at that matters, but what we see” (Henry David Thoreau). You may remember that Alfonso presented at our first Zoom meeting towards the end of last season. Here’s a link to his website if you would to see some examples of his work: https://alfonsoramundo.photoshelter.com/index . |
