Our own member, Don Dickins, will give a presentation on the topic of Still-Life Photography at our next meeting to be held at 7:45 pm on Monday 6th of May 2019.

We are familiar with still life photographs of food, flowers, bottles of wine, shoes, jewellery, appliances and equipment as used in advertising. Still-life photography, the depiction and arrangement, generally, of mainly inanimate objects, gives the photographer many challenges in the choice of the design elements used within the composition. Lighting, as always in photography, is part of that challenge. This presentation will help members prepare for the Competition Topic on Still Life on 17 June 2019.

The presentation will be followed by a hands-on workshop, so bring your cameras, tripod, and any still-life props you wish to photograph. We will provide lights, photo boxes and backdrops for you to use.
