17th October
The scheduled presentation for the 17th October unfortunately had to be cancelled due to a family illness. The race was then on to come up with an entertaining, useful and fun alternative.
An inspired idea by members Al Rees and Dave Bolton to hold a Halloween photoshoot came to fruition ! A room full of props and a stunning backdrop provided the setting for the volunteer models . Not only did we have the lovely but scary Leah and Ella Thomas, but they were accompanied by the talented and patient GSP’s Bracken and River. Beautiful pumpkins, kindly donated by The Four Seasons in Tenby set the scene beautifully.
Members were called in one by one to choose their props, which models to use and to direct the shoot. Then an opportunity to take several shots to produce something out of the ordinary.
Out in the main room we were also lucky to have the teaching skills of the talented Gill and Alistair Mackay ,Gary Mayhew and Charlie Kidd . Many thanks to them for sharing their knowledge. A wide range of photographic topics and questions were covered with demonstrations on computers and with cameras .
Many thanks to everyone who contributed to make the evening successful . Leah and Ella were so patient and helpful acting to order, having fun with the exceptionally trained Bracken and River . Dave Bolton and Al Rees showed their skills advising and setting up the photographic experience for members with Cheryl Hewitt liaising between the different set ups.
A really fun and educational evening for everyone.
Next week we have “An evening with Peter Young” who will be discussing how his photography started and how it developed.
