2nd Adv. Print Comp – Ken Scott ARPS
2016-01-14 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
Ken has been involved in club photography for more years than he or I can remember. He has been to Chichester umpteen times both as a judge and as a lecturer.
A man of many talents, he has relatively recently been promoted to the PAGB Judges’ list – the top level for the U.K. consisting of about 90 people. He has also devised an entirely new programme for training and mentoring judges for the SCPF which has already had a very positive impact on the flow of new volunteers to ‘tread the boards’.
He is a popular workshop leader and has been running his own workshops in France and Spain for a number of years.

Print Group Meeting
2016-01-12 19:30
The Print Group will meet again conveniently a week before the next Beginner and Intermediate Print Competition deadline, so do bring along work you’re thinking about entering.

Nick Eriksson – A Day in the Life of a Director of Photography (Cinematographer)
2016-01-07 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
Nicholas Eriksson is a Director of Photography working within the field of Motion Pictures, Music Videos and Commercials. During a relatively short period of time he has travelled extensively, working on projects throughout the UK and Europe, North America, Africa, the Middle East, India, and Asia, where he was previously based in Hong Kong
Recent projects such as Edward Carter’s ‘The Funeral Director’ and Michael Middleton-Downer’s ‘Top Hat’ have both received substantial international exposure.
During the summer of 2013, Nick began principal photography on his first feature film as Cinematographer. Entitled ‘A Dark Reflection’, the film is a conspiracy-thriller about the airline industry. Destined for a 2014 release, the film was shot over a 12-week period around the United Kingdom, with additional photography in Jordan.
A Dark Reflection

Some of our members saw this film back in February at New Park, the day after it was premiered in Horsham (where the director and his small film company – Fact Not Fiction Films – is based. The Cinematographer / Director of Photography, Nick Eriksson, is coming to talk to us on 7th January.

It‘s a drama / documentary about a very real problem, bleed air / Aerotoxic syndrome, whose very existence is denied by both the airlines and the CAA. Unless you fly on the new Dreamliner, all commercial aircraft use air from around the engines pumped in to the cabin. That’s fine until one or more seals of the bearings leak. Then an odourless cocktail of organo-phosphates is brought in to contact with the passengers and crew. Amazingly there are no sensors fitted to detect this problem. As the airlines deny their very existence, why would they fit any detectors ? If this problem does not exist why are flight crew being taken ill or in a few cases dying ? Tristan Loraine, the director, was a Captain with BA until neurological damage ended his flying career.

My plan had been to buy several copies of this thought-provoking film and distribute them to members so that they could see the film before the 7th January. As we are in the 21st century and the film had a limited release to selected cinemas, it is only available as a download. You can thus download it via either Amazon or iTunes – the former is much cheaper. Check out www.adarkreflection.com for further information.

Another first time visitor to the club, again from Bognor Regis, Rob de Ruiter. He is well known as a visitor to our meetings and always a positive fan of our exhibitions, Rob has boundless energy and has reinvigorated the Bognor club and has already served a term as their President.
Rob is relatively new to the judging circuit but is very enthusiastic and brings a very refreshing approach to a difficult task which few club members are prepared to turn their hand to.

Viveca Koh is another first time visitor to Tangmere. She was recommended to me after she gave a talk at the Bognor Regis club last season.

Caroline Colegate is the President of the Bracknell CC and has been to us many times. She is one of the top judges in our Federation and helps to train and mentor some of our newer judges – aided by Roy Lambeth and Glyn Edmunds.

Jeff Morgan – HDR In a Good Way
2015-11-19 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
In a relatively short time, HDR, has got a really bad reputation. Like a lot of things in digital photography it is possible to do it well or badly. This is Jeff’s first visit to Chichester, but he is a fine photographer, a good communicator and excellent company.

Workshop at Emsworth with Jeff Morgan: Invitation
2015-11-18 | EMSWORTH COMMUNITY CENTRE, North Street, Emsworth, PO10 7DD, United Kingdom
Jeff Morgan will be giving a talk to CCC on the 18th November . Jeff now lives on the IOW, so he is coming over for a few days, talking to both Havant (Tuesday) and Chichester Clubs and is offering a chargeable workshop on the Wednesday for any members of the 2 clubs who would like to take up the opportunity.
We met Jeff two or three years ago and did a week’s workshop in France with him before staying with Rosie & Ron Armes for a few days. He’s a very accomplished photographer but also an excellent presenter. Even I could make sense of HDR from his class in France.
Attached is a flyer for the Workshop.

Mike Read – The Falklands : Islands of Kings, Tyrants and Giants
2015-11-05 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
The Falklands – Islands of Kings, Tyrants & Giants

Set adrift in the South Atlantic, this British Overseas Territory came to everyone’s attention when Argentinean forces invaded in 1982. The resulting conflict was fairly short-lived but the episode lives long in people’s memories. What is less well known however is how fabulous the archipelago is for wildlife. There are huge colonies of Penguins (4 species), Imperial Shags and the majority of the World’s Black-browed Albatrosses nest here. South American Sealions and huge Southern Elephant Seals line the beach constantly arguing over ownership of a harem. It truly is an amazing place.

See webpage http://farm5.clik.com/mikeyread/_photo_13452224.html#photos_id=13452223
Mike Read is a freelance nature photographer specialising in birds, flowers, mammals, other wildlife and landscapes. He lives on the edge of the fabulous New Forest National Park in southern England and has a wide range of wildlife, traditions and views from this unique area.
He has worked as a freelance photographer for over 35 years and has consequently built up a huge library of stunning images.
