Roy Carey FRPS, DPAGB, APAGB, BPE2*, our first speaker, is a member of Maidstone Camera Club. His talk is entitled “Myways”. Roy is a lecturer and judge in the Kent County Photographic Association. His work covers a diverse range of styles from simply observed elegant images to cleverly created digital images to sophisticated AV presentations and it has been widely exhibited.

Our second speaker is Graham Hodgkiss ARPS, DPAGB, APAGB, AFIAP. Graham is an ebullient and amusing 'Brummie', and also a multi-award winning photographer and judge. He has been lecturing around the UK for more than 25 years and his relaxed, informal style combined with a wealth of experience should make for an entertaining and informative presentation. His lecture, “Is It My Passion Or Obsession”, will consist of monochrome and colour prints. Graham is sponsored by Colour Confidence.

17th July, Margaret Salisbury Prints Talk plus PDI Exhibition Selection

at Whittlesford Memorial Hall, Mill Lane, Whittlesford, Cambs, CB22 4NE

The PDI Exhibition selection will be followed by Margaret Salisbury's presentation (see below).

Margaret Salisbury, FRPS, FIPF, MFAIP, APAGB, a popular lecturer famously nicknamed "The Welsh Dragon", is well known for her landscapes, among her favourite subjects being the hills and abandoned slate quarries of her native North Wales. She is equally famous for photographing people in their own environment, her talk including pictures of a trip to Ghana for a wedding. In addition to the wedding, Margaret captured some wonderful images of everyday village life. Informative and entertaining, Margaret's reputation has been earned from years of helping aspiring photographers as well as from her own pictures.

The 2011 PDI Exhibition selection then took place, followed by a viewing of the selected images.
