The Art of Seeing

Matt Badenoch

This talk is a lively blend of storytelling, creative inspiration, and hands-on practical advice, with an emphasis on the latter. 

Matt will introduce different street themes and discuss what creates interest in a street photo, while sharing some of my most effective, actionable tips to help you take your street photography to the next level, whether you're a beginner or more experienced shooter. I will also delve into the decisions I made in the moment, and how I managed to isolate the interest amongst the chaos.

Photo Art

Stan Farrow FRPS EFIAP DPAGB

In this talk Stan will show the inspiration behind some of his creative photographic artwork, with details of how it is produced. He is always far more interested in turning his photography into art, rather than producing work for competition purposes, although often the two go hand-in hand. Stan does greatly enjoy using Photoshop creatively to make his digital art, especially still-life work with layers of texture. Having said that much of his work is simple to create at home and involves few digital skills whatsoever.
