This Friday at KPS .....

Kingswood Photographic Society is absolutely delighted to welcome Ray Grace  ARPS, DPAGB, as their speaker on Friday, 20^th Marach giving an illustrated and educational talk entitled Nice is not good enough (making the most of your images). 

Ray says: “I love photography. I love taking pictures and I love looking at pictures. I tend to think of myself as a landscape photographer as it is something I enjoy in accompaniment with my love of hill and mountain walking. However, in recent years I’ve expanded my horizons and I now enjoy macro photography, particularly with flowers, where I try to look for patterns and textures. Additionally, I love all forms of wildlife and am currently try to develop my skill as a bird photographer.

I’m a great believer in drawing the best out of my pictures at the post-processing stage. This was true when I was a darkroom worker but now it is even more so. The tools at the disposal of digital photographers are amazing and I firmly believe we should all make the most of them. ‘Nice’ (a word used by camera club judges a lot) is not good enough. We all like to get as much right in the camera as possible but, quite often, that is not enough, and some ‘tweaking’ is required. This talk is designed for those who might be new to photography or nervous of Photoshop with the intention of showing just how easy it is to take an ‘out of camera’ image and improve it.”
