You asked for it and I'm thrilled to say that Tesni will be back with another highly entertaining, informative and fun evening in 2020. If you missed her last visit don't be so foolish this time. Have a look at her website here and see what wonderful photos she takes. Her talk this time is […]
It's time to practice what you learnt recently as Lee Frost returns to help you out with the practical of taking macro photographs of Hayley's creatures that she is kindly bringing in. You will need cameras and tripods at least but will Lee have advised you to bring something else....?? And what wonderful creatures will […]

You remember Nicholls night? What a night that was! Well tonight we take it outside or on the road (venue to be decided) as we take action figure photography to the next level....well somewhere we can make a mess and have fire...and lots of smoke.....and blow things up....well maybe not not the last bit.... Bring […]
We took the pictures last week and now Andy will take us through his processing after the event. Meet the man behind the magic and and let him take you on a journey into the world of miniature giants.
I have booked us in here again! We will get the chance to photograph birds in flight as well as sat in natural surroundings so this is an amazing opportunity particularly as it will only be open for us. My favourite bit from last time was getting in with the animals and getting up close […]
He started it! In October 2019 that is and tonight he's going to finish it as Nathan returns with what would have been part 3 and will now be part one of tonight... Talking about and showing pictures from a trip to North America brace yourselves for the return of...Nathan night!
He thought he'd gotten away with it but here he is with a whole night.....that'll learn him.....although in fairness he did volunteer. I have no idea what he's doing yet, I just wanted to get it up on here. And whatever it is I'm sure it'll be fabulous.
Tonight is all about tripping up small people or..... What is a triptych? It’s a type of three-fold art that is typically hinged together as carved panels side by side. The artistic works compliment each other with similar subjects or a relatable message. Many early triptychs started showing up in religious gathering places as altarpieces […]
Exact details tbc but tonight Glyn and Claire will be showing some of their stop motion videos (all made from photographs) and showing you how they are filmed and put together. Next week, out and about, we will all be making one!
Following on from last week we will be out and making a stop motion film together. You will need a tripod although it is possible to make one without-as you will have seen last week. I have marked it down as being at Park Hall Country Park-by the lake-but this may change.
How did you get on last week? Tonight we will be watching the videos you created and any more you have made. We will also be helping people who may be struggling and working through and problems you may have had.
We thought we'd scared him off last time but we didn't do a good enough job apparently; yes Gary Langley is threatening to return and bring a friend for protection. Their talk is entitled ME AND MR GRUMPY which about confirms what we already know. Come along and try and cheer him up whilst not […]

Here is his introduction to what will be happening: I have delivered a film noir evening to many clubs in LCPU over the last two years and I am an internationally published character model and stage and […]
Returning for a final time it's Mr Mono himself, Dave Butcher. Always genial and always a pleasure to have him talk and see his fabulous pictures don't miss the only lecture of his we haven't seen as we say goodbye to one of our favourite speakers.
Back again the very popular Bob Brind-Surch is this time doing a presentation on Tanzania and the wonderful photographic opportunities it presents. Will you be booking a tour there with him by the end of the night? Will I be persuaded to go back for a third time? Whatever the outcome it will be worth […]
