March
Angela Fitch
writes:
The next meeting of Birlingham Photography Club is on Tuesday 6th
March, 7.00pm – 8.30pm in Birlingham Village Hall.
Photo critique
evening. Local photographer, Paul Lloyd, will lead an evening of
constructive comment on selected works. BPC members are invited to submit an
image and Paul will advise on the tricks of the trade which turn a good photo
into something spectacular. Paul says: ‘Sometimes you just need to take a step
to the left or maybe go low to capture that big bold foreground; the camera
doesn’t always see what you see.’ Paul’s comments will be 100 per cent
constructive, so don’t be scared, step right up and improve your photography in
a flash!
Everyone is welcome, under 18s to be accompanied by an adult.
£3pp which includes tea/coffee and biscuits. More information is available at www.birlinghamphotography.co.uk.
