Jo Teasdale: My Adopted Family and Other Projects
2020-01-30 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
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

Name Leo Rich ARPS, EFIAP/gold, DPAGB, BPE3*

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.

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.

Print Group
2019-11-12 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
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.

Paul Davison ARPS DPAGB: Shipbreaking. Whale Hunters of Lamalera & a Slice of Paradise
2019-10-31 19:30 - 21:30 | Tangmere Village Hall, Malcolm Road, Tangmere, West Sussex, PO20 2HS, United Kingdom
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.
