Our next meeting, on Thursday 15th March, is a special event, with Bob Brind-Surch, from Towcester Camera Club, talking about Macro Photography.
Bob is a recognized expert on macro photography, and has given presentations on the subject across the country to great acclaim. He will give a large number of examples from the natural world, and also some from a range of other situations that should make his talk of interest to all photographers. One feature of Bob’s talks is his enthusiasm and willingness to explain his techniques and the use of a variety of cameras, lens types and software.
This promises to be a most exciting opportunity to learn about this field of photography. Please bring lots of friends (together with yourself, of course!). We look forward to seeing you all at this very interesting meeting.
