This presentation is for beginners and advanced as Tony shows us how to maximise our cameras!
Matt Palmer is an award-winning photographic artist based in Alpine Victoria. Passionate about our natural world, and photographs that tell a story or establish a sense of place, Matt has won over 200 awards across documentary and landscape photography categories.
Matt runs the Alpine Light Gallery located in Bright, Victoria with his partner, landscape photographer Mieke Boynton.
Join us at the club where Matt will be zooming us all the way from Victoria!
This week we will help and guide our members to edit their own images. Please bring along your own laptop and a few images you would like to edit and make better. If you don’t have a laptop, please bring your images on a usb and we will help you with our club laptop. Bring your editing questions along and enjoy a great night learning tips an tricks on ways to edit using your own software and programs.
Before our editing session we will have our AGM which shouldn’t take long. We encourage all our members to attend as there will be a few vacancies available on the committee and just volunteers in general. We are a club run off about 7 dedicated volunteers but that doesn’t means they will wear out faster. Every helper is essential and appreciated to help grow and keep our club running as we reach 60 years next year!
We are very excited to have our former Patron John Swainston join us for another follow up presentation on his wonderful project of Sydney in Lockdown.
“Since March 2020 John Swainston has documented ‘Sydney Locked Down.’ After two waves of COVID ran through NSW in 2020, he thought the project might be done. As 2020 flexed into 2021 and then Omicron heralded-in 2022 the project kept being extended. In this presentation John reflects on a broader message of documentary record as well as updating part of the presentation he gave St. George in 2021. He will also use other documentary projects he has undertaken to illustrate the talk.
He’s started revisiting the people and places in Sydney Locked Down to tell more of the stories of what happened since his original photographs were made. John shares thoughts on how he might have approached things differently, given what this more than two-year project involved and with the benefit of hindsight. Attendees will gain valuable insights into the planning and decisions required to cover a major story or documentary record of something or someone. The presentation will be followed by a facilitated discussion in which members can share their own experiences, learnings and the changes that have been involved in subsequent work.”
