Nick Rees is a professional marine artist who lives in Sully. His passion is capturing the ever changing interaction between sea and light.
His presentation will touch on factors affecting both art and photography and will include a quick on the spot sketch and also paintings to illustrate this. In the second half of the meeting Nick proposes to look at members’ photographs and explain how he would interpret them as paintings.
We will resume and complete our Salon Workshop in Ystradowen at 7.30 pm. Please bring your prints with you (your PDIs have already been sent).
Warren Alani is a professional photographer based in Northamptonshire. His presentation will challenge members to see things differently. It covers a range of topics presented in a unique way and is designed to draw the eye and to express the elements and stories within.
This is a Zoom meeting in the comfort of your own home.

Mike Davies has agreed, as an addition to our programme, to run a workshop at the hall. The intention is for members to have the opportunity of expert advice on the suitability of images for entry to the Welsh Salon. The doors will open at around 7.00 pm and all are invited, whether or not you bring any images with you for Mike to look at. Please send DPI’s to [email protected] beforehand (as usual JPEGs should be sized to be no greater than 1920 pixels along the horizontal edge and no greater than 1080 pixels along the vertical edge).
Members’ critique. Look out for the last date for submissions in the latest Valeflash. For guidance , see https://thevalephotographicclub.co.uk/competition-entries/
Please submit Jpegs of familiar items taken in such a way as to make them difficult to recognise and Jpegs of familiar places anywhere in the world (please select images of places, buildings or objects that are reasonably well known). Please send “What is it” images to Geoff at [email protected] using file names that identify the object plus the members number e.g. Shoe lift, 29. Please send “Where is it” images to Wendy at [email protected] using file names that describe where and what the image is plus the members number e.g. Blue Mosque, Istanbul, 29.
Light refreshments will be provided for what should be an enjoyable evening!
