Thursday 4th October 2012 - Christine Widdall

Post by John »

I'll leave the full details of the return of the legendary Chris Widdall to ADAPS, but a quick mention that we will also have an extra special raffle prize. As well as the usual wine or memory stick, a Platimum subscription worth £39.50 is up for grabs, to the online magazine Landscape Photography Magazine. A sample issue can be viewed here: http://landscapephotographymagazine.com ... ne-sample/
Best regards

Hi Everyone

This weeks speaker is Christine Widdall who is making a welcome return visit to the Club. Until recently Christine was the President of the L & CPU and has won many awards for her photography.

Christine will be bringing a variety of prints, mostly colour for us to have a look at and will also include her recent MPAGB set.

Please visit her website at http://christinewiddall.co.uk

I am sorry to say both me and Lesley will miss this event due to a prior engagement :-[ but I look forward to hearing all about it.

Thanks

Gill

I found the talk very interesting and enjoyable .. I will admit it did start out a little "these are my pictures" type of talk but I got engrosed in Chris' work .. she is a very approachable and warm person (and her photography is amazing too :) ) I see her in a new light now I know she is a regular to WGW and that we can polute her need for Urbexing :)
Take only pictures, Leave only footprints ........
Возьмите только фотографии, оставить только след .........

Always ask yourself this question: “am I proud of this shot?” if the answer is “yes” then it doesn’t matter what anyone else says.

A great evening, looking at great pictures, very entertainingly presented. I got a lot of inspiration and ideas from the evening, you can’t ask for anything more. I've been looking forward to it for weeks, and I wasn't disapointed. 5S

I was really sorry to miss this event and glad everyone enjoyed it.

I would love to take the credit for this one but it is Pammie you need to thank - she booked in a couple for this season before she retired from the post. So thanks Pammie, another great speaker.
