Double Exposure Two – Paula FRPS & Guy ARPS Davies

Hyacinth by Paula Davies
Luskentyre estuary by Guy Davies
“I describe myself as a “butterfly photographer” because I flit from subject to subject taking a photograph of anything that attracts me. I enjoy being out in the landscape pressing the shutter but I get particular satisfaction from seeking out abstract images in man-made and natural objects that look like landscapes. My FRPS panel was a good example of this.”
quote Paula Davies
Guy likes to apply the darkroom approach to bringing out the best in an image by selectively adjusting contrast. He particularly enjoys a monochrome picture and generally tends towards the dramatic approach but is occasionally tempted into trying the delicate/high key technique.

My father introduced me to photography, and the darkroom, when I was about seven years old, and I’ve been producing pictures ever since.

I became actively involved in club photography in 1979, (as a member of Field End Photographic Society in Ruislip, Middlesex). I gained an Associateship of the RPS with traditional darkroom monochrome prints, and a Fellowship with digital colour prints. I serve on the RPS Fine Art Associateship and Fellowship assessment panel, and provide advice at RPS distinction workshops.

A busy national PAGB judge, and popular lecturer, I have visited more than 230 different camera clubs, and judged many regional, national and international exhibitions. (See the Judging & Lecturing page on this website).
I earnt a Distinction of the PAGB with colour transparencies, and was pleased to receive an APAGB award for my services to photography. I have also had success and gained awards in international exhibitions while working towards my AFIAP and subsequent EFIAP distinctions.

Now retired from working as an air traffic controller, I am a member of Amersham Photographic Society. Since 2005 I have occasionally supported Paul Foley FRPS with Spirit & Vision Landscape Photographic Workshops.

What is the difference between a marvellous photograph and a photograph of something marvellous? Perhaps that seminal work “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance” can help us out.

Paul Davison ARPS DPAGB: Shipbreaking. Whale Hunters of Lamalera & a Slice of Paradise
2019-10-31 19:30 - 21:30
I’ve always enjoyed visiting new places, meeting new people and I suffer from an unquenchable desire to escape normality. For as long as I can remember I’ve always had the urge to get out and see the world, experience new cultures and explore wild landscapes but it wasn’t until I started to travel the world that photography became one of my great passions in life.
Over the past decade or so I’ve been able to travel extensively and experience many of the amazing gifts the planet has to offer. It’s these experiences that naturally led to me specialising in travel photography. Although it’s often the incredible landscapes that make people want to travel, it’s the culture and interaction with the native people that I find the most rewarding. I love to take candid photos of people going about their everyday life. If you can take an image that captures the essence of a culture and successfully relay that to the viewer then it will have achieved everything a good travel image should.
I was awarded an Associateship with the Royal Photographic Society (ARPS) in 2009 for a set of images taken in India. This kick started my emerging path in life and I now regularly undertake photographic commissions for a variety of clients. This in turn has led to the sale of images to multinational corporations and images being selected for use in global seminars. In 2013 I was awarded a Distinction with the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (DPAGB) for a portfolio of 15 images taken over the last few years.

His diverse travel and wildlife photography has helped achieve a LRPS in 2000 and an ARPS in 2001. An extensive involvement in international exhibiting since then has secured over 300 images accepted into exhibitions world-wide and an AFIAP in 2011 and EFIAP in 2012. Next on the horizon should be the Masters in FIAP.

Name Leo Rich ARPS, EFIAP/gold, DPAGB, BPE3*
HonPAGB for exceptional service to the PAGB/ Amateur Club Photography in the UK)
Location: Salisbury, Wiltshire UK
Specific Areas of Photographic Interest or Expertise?
None. Leo classes himself as a “Jobbing Amateur” who will photograph, poorly, anything that takes his fancy though he has developed a love of taking environmental people portraits when travelling.
He enjoys Wildlife (and the wildlife) and Natural History subjects but photographs them very badly. He is always seeking a fresh challenge in the hope that, given time, he will produce a half decent image.

History
Having acquired an interest in photography whilst a schoolboy, and teaching himself to take, develop and print pictures he has been a “club photographer” for many years and is an avid entrant in photographic exhibitions throughout the World. In the past eight years alone he has amassed over 1000 acceptances, achieving numerous medals, ribbons and awards in more than 30 countries on five Continents.
He is also a Photographic Alliance of Great Britain Judge and has been the Selector for National and International Exhibitions as well as their own Awards for Photographic Merit scheme.

Jo Teasdale: My Adopted Family and Other Projects
2020-01-30 19:30 - 21:30
I am a contemporary photographer based in Brighton. My work follows two distinct paths:
One is project-based work, usually with a conceptual influence and the other is street photography.
I enjoy the immediacy and quirky unexpected elements of street life whilst my conceptual work is
an artistic form of self-expression, often poignant and edgy, often unveiling elements of our human
nature. My aim in all my photography is to provide a strong narrative or provoke an emotional response
from the viewer. I wish to engage the audience to participate in the stories that unfold around me
