Chris has been presenting talks on landscape photography at a wide range of locations since 2009. 

Most camera clubs do welcome new members or paying guests for the evening so why not take time to attend one of these inspirational seminars?

The main presentations last around 90-100 mins with plenty of landscape images on show. Each presentation covers different aspects of photography; maybe a consideration of the composition process, a specialist area of interest such as Venice, or perhaps a look at how different photographic capture methods give different results (HDR etc). A question and answer session will follow the main presentation. There is normally a short break during the presentation.

Any camera clubs or photographic organisations interested in booking the seminar should contact Chris direct on 07920 044094. Also any public or private venues interested in holding a talk should contact Chris to discuss any possibilities.

Forthcoming talks/seminars: (all talks are around 90 minutes long with a break in the middle)
