LAST MEETING (May)
Annabel Moeller’s presentation: “Techniques for relaxed and authentic portraiture”
This was a real treat as Annabel vividly brought to life her perilous trips to war zones such as Afghanistan, Ukraine and Irak and her close encounters with fighters. She got to know individuals, gain their confidence and consequently take great close-ups. She also showed us some completely contrasting images: stunning portraits and beautifully lit dancers. This evening’s format was new for us too as it took the form of an interview between her and one of our members. She also welcomed questions from the whole audience who participated enthusiastically.
