Atherton & District Amateur Photographic Society

John Lyons talk last night sparked a lot of ideas on presentation. I went thro a ton of images I took a couple of years ago, in a series I called “ In the window”. I didn’t think much of them, at the time and had confined them to a memory stick, to keep them out of sight of the grandchildren.

I dug them out this morning and had a little play, this is just the first one I messed with, Just converted to B&W and altered the contrast, I’m quite chuffed with it myself, and quite surprised at what can be done with what I considered rubbish at the time. Has John changed the way I look at things ?

It looks like this series of images will be worth revisiting Peter. It's the right style and location, so please do post a few more and let's see how they look.

Superb image, it certainly has the same feel as the images from last night, Well worth re looking at.
I think John opened a few peoples eyes, he certainly opened mine.

Well done! I think it's a lovely picture too!

Although it's easy to say, I love teaching & really enjoyed last night. To see such a positive reaction like this to hearing my waffle is a great compliment...Thank YOU very much!

Now I've registered there's all sorts of things I'd like to feed into your group...but not tonight, I feel ready to fall asleep! Please advise me, where is a good place for me to do a "Hello and extra bits" posting??? I don't want to step on established toes by putting it in the wrong place.

Kind Regards

John Lyons

....if you manage to read through all the biographies on these sites you'll know me a lot better, I can be quite prolific when I get going!

Hi John (camera clix)
Thank you for your kind words about my picture, I realy enjoyed last night and feel I had my eyes opened to a new way of looking at things.
Thanks again

Hi John, ( Riley) Here’s another one for you, and if I turn up next week with a black eye, for posting these, I’ll blame you. You’ve stayed at this location yourself. where you can have a drink on the balcony overlooking a very high waterfall, I won’t put the name in case the owner sees it and won’t let us misuse his premises again.

Ah, yes. Thanks for the second image, which I actually prefer to the first. I like the angle of her head better.

Yes, I prefer the 2nd too..less posed and she looks more at ease
