Richard says: “Photo Odyssey is reflections on a
personal journey of photographic discovery, from commissioning advertising work
and pro-assignments to mostly amateur work for the love of it, with the central
idea that everyone can achieve success or pretty much anything they want, given
appropriate effort and focus. I will aim
to make it more pictorial rather than philosophical and plan to show more of my
emerging interest in constructed/creative imagery.”
Richard's talk is illustrated throughout with images
from many genres including still life, sport, portraiture and creative. He hopes his journey, part serendipity part
directed, will chime with and encourage others, as we learn how he sought to
balance life, work and satisfaction with competition success and failure. Interspersing the images, Richard will touch
upon motivation, ideas to refresh one's work and how he learnt to harness
defeat to improve his photography.
The illustrative photographs are three sample 'Salon' images from photo genres that Richard will talk about, and they demonstrate well why this promises to be an absolutely fascinating evening. By request, Richard will also show us a few images from a Whitby Goths event.
Kingswood PS meet Fridays from 7.30pm to around 9.30pm at St Barnabas Church Hall, Warmley, Bristol BS30 5JJ. Visitors are most welcome and the cost for this evening is £3.00.
