Last night we were treated to a fantastic evening of pure inspiration with Polina Plotinikova, Polina’s excellent presentation covered Flower Portraits” and “Still Life”, her influences and her techniques along with lots of tips; all illustrated with her inspiring photos some of which are still dancing in our heads!
Very many thanks Polina for a truly memorable evening.
This week’s meeting comprised a session exploring ideas to inspire and more information/tips for our Faceless Self Portrait competition and the results of “A Different Take” .
A Different Take: One group of five brave members each submitted two images for processing by a group of ‘processors’ who each edited two images; in another twist, a few images were processed by two processors. The results were reviewed by all at the meeting when the ‘before’ and after images were shown and discussed. It was a very informative and successful exercise from everyone’s point of view.
Next week we have a talk by Polina Plotnikova FRPS EFIAP – “Starting from a blank canvas” and we’re all very much looking forward to it.
Have a good week, stay safe and well.
Many thanks to Julia for running last night’s virtual meeting at which she revealed our June competition challenge – Faceless Self Portraits.
We are thoroughly enjoying the series of four-weekly programmes and last night was no exception. We discussed and critiqued some images together, voices heard and opinions shared – easier for some to express their views in a virtual meeting where there are no barriers – backs of heads, rows of chairs!
The evening ended with a discussion about programme ideas for the coming months – even without a crystal ball to hand – we are looking forward with optimism.
