LAST MEETING
JULY MEETING Wednesday 19th July at 8pm
Roger Towell ARPS
We all enjoyed Roger’s presentation and images.  We also enjoyed the discussion about his approach to photography and the fact that, for B&W images, Roger sees in B&W and is able to interpret and translate a coulour scene into B&W.  Although much of his work is B&W, his colour images are great too.
