Dr Peter Moseley: Photographic Processes
2019-09-19 19:30 - 21:30
I’m a photographer/printmaker specialising in early photographic processes – photogravure, platinum, carbon transfer, salt, albumen and cyanotype printing. I arrange workshops and provide individual tuition at at universities, colleges and other print studios, both in the UK and abroad.
My life-long interest in photography has been extended with an MA in Printmaking (Brighton University) and, more recently, through a PhD project investigating nineteenth century photographic printing processes at the ‘Centre for Fine Print Research’ at the University of the West of England.

I have a particular interest in portraiture and have held several solo exhibitions and been shown at the the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, The Royal West of England Academy and The Royal Birmingham Society of Artists. One of my photogravure portraits was been selected for display in the 2016 Taylor Wessing Photography Prize at the National Portrait Gallery.

Ross McKelvey MPAGB FIPF EFIAP/G FBPE – Awarded over 300 Medals in National & International Exhibitions since 2010. President and founder of Catchlight Camera Club, Belfast.

Exhibition Photography has been my passion for several years. Since joining a local camera club in approximately 1999, photography has become a real passion for me, and I regularly compete in National and International Photographic Salons – mostly in Print sections. My most successful genre is probably portraiture, but I enjoy everything from landscape to sport, Nature, Still Life and digital composites.

Print Group
2019-10-08 19:30 - 21:30
Print Group got of to a great start last month with a good number of brave new members ready to show work, and very interesting work it was too with much diversity.
We meet again on Tuesday 8th October at 715 for a 7.30pm start in the small hall at Tangmere Village Centre, at £3 for members.
As always, the group welcomes photographers at all levels of experience and you can bring along work at various stages to share. It can be finished work you’d like to show, work in progress or that tricky image that you’d like advice on. You might like to use the group to help you deiced which images to put in for competitions, and later in the year to think about exhibition prints.
You are also welcome to just come along to see what the group is about and there’s no need to bring work if you don’t feel ready to.
There’s no need to mount work – but if you attach prints (which can be just A5 approximate size) to card they will sit better on the prints stands.
I look forward to seeing you then.

RPS Group
2019-10-15 19:30 - 21:30
The RPS Group welcomes all those who are interested in finding out more and working towards the distinctions offered by the Royal Photographic Society. We meet for our second session this season on Tuesday 15th October when we will be looking at some recent LRPS (Licentiate) and ARPS (Associate) awards and the underlying principles of making panels (that is a cohesive group pf images) at those levels.
You are welcome to simply come along to find out more, and when you are ready, to bring along a good wide selection of your photographs. These do not need to be full size (A5 or so is fine), but do please tack them onto some card as this helps keep them upright on the print stands we use.
Other members of the group are already well on their way to completed panels and our discussions of those will demonstrate further how to go about applying for these highly regarded distinctions.
You don’t need to be a member of Chichester Camera Club to join this (or indeed any of our Special Interest Groups).

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.

Print Group
2019-11-12 19:30 - 21:30
We had another very lively Print Group meeting in October and it is especially encouraging that so many of our newer members are coming along and starting to share their work.
Our discussions turned to the use of good quality printing paper and with this in mind our November meeting will look in particular at the ranges of papers, the pros and cons of lustre, glossy and matt, matching images to paper types and some of the different manufacturers.
If you’d like to just come along and find out more, it isn’t obligatory to bring images, but if you would like to, do bring your images, work in progress or finished work as always. And if you use different types of paper you’d like to show, that would be particularly helpful, but not necessary – any photographs you’d like to share, discuss and get advice on will be welcome.
