Last Week: Long Exposure

Last week we had a great talk from Harry Wheeler-Brand "Harry Behind the lens" who gave us a great talk on long exposures featuring lots of familiar locations from the coast of East Anglia.

It was a very informative and enjoyable evening featuring lots of Harrys excellent landscape work. 

Frames Photo Summit

FRAMES Magazine is holding an online Photo Summit.  The speaker lineup is amazing.  12 speakers including world-renowned photographers such as Michael Kenna, Alec Soth, Amy Vitale, Phil Penman, and John Paul Caponigro.  I am incredibly honoured and very excited to be included in this line-up.

Tickets don't just give you access to the live talks, you will also get access to all the recordings for 3 months after the event.  Therefore it does not matter if you are not able to attend any of the talks, you can catch up at your leisure.  If you want to listen to some a second or third time you can.

If you use the code CAROLINE20 you will get a 20% discount off the full ticket price.

Much Hadham Parish Magazine Needs Our Images

The Editor of our local Parish Magazine would love to see more of our images of Much Hadham and its environs to go on this year's front pages. Images can be as straightforward or as creative as we like to make them.

There are two constraints however: firstly the images need to be in colour and, secondly, they need to be portrait format. It's a great opportunity to see our images in print.

Please email images - file size, 5MB or larger - to Paul (Major) on this address
