Peter Crane ARPS - Street Photography
Presented by: Peter Crane ARPS - www.petercrane.co.uk
Street photography for Peter is an instinctive urge and after nine or ten years of wandering the streets with his camera it still is to some extent about staying curious and inspired – and then looking for that decisive moment.
Based in Swindon he goes to busy public places, wandering the streets just looking for things that move or inspire him in some way. Always looking for characters he has been known to follow someone to get a better image, perhaps with a better background, just trying to tell a story in a single frame or trying to capture a decisive moment.

Presented by: Paul Davison ARPS -www.pauldavisonphotography.com
Based in Winchester, Paul has always had the urge to get out and see the world, experience new cultures and explore wild landscapes but it wasn’t until he started to travel that photography became one of his passions in life. He considers himself to have been extremely fortunate to be able to travel extensively and experience many of the amazing gifts the planet has to offer, and it’s these experiences that naturally led to him specialising in travel photography. Although it’s often the incredible landscapes that make people want to travel, it’s the culture and interaction with the local people that he finds the most rewarding. This presentation will be a travelogue of travels to Bangladesh, Indonesia, Mozambique and Colombia. |
