John Lyons - Fine Art

Post by Paul Jones »

I thoroughly enjoyed tonight's presentation - both the images and hearing John talk about his work.
I would welcome more nights like this.

Same here, thoroughly enjoyed it. More of an abstract way of looking at the female form.

Interesting evening and an interesting early statement by John about keeping it simple - more about the art of photography than Photoshop.

Johns way of showing real women and all their pluses in a natural un edited way really opened my eyes to what can be done without the use of photoshop and just using light, positioning and shadow . Top night had by all i think,

I also thoroughly enjoyed it, I'll try some single harsh light source shots at home, with just an apple though, I think my wife might not to overly keen :-)
