Future Events

The next meeting of the Aldeburgh Photography Group will be held on Wednesday 19 November at 7.30pm in the Aldeburgh Library. 

This month we are pleased to welcome David Calvert, a photographer based on the Suffolk coast, who has been working professionally for over twenty years and specialises in landscape and portrait photography.  Since moving here most of his work has primarily centred on coastal images, in particular Aldeburgh and the surrounding areas and most images are available as beautiful fine art prints and cards.  His work is regularly used by publications and broadcasters around the world and he has been recognised by more than 120 awards, including 16 UK titles and three international honours.  David is a Fellow of both the Royal Photographic Society and the British Institute of Professional Photography, as well as an Icon Master in the USA.

The evening will conclude with members showing their images inspired by the talk given last month by professional photographer Daniel Ruffles.

The next meeting of the Aldeburgh Photography Group will be held on Wednesday 10 December at 7.30pm in the Aldeburgh Library. 

This month Stuart Turner, president of APG, will speak about some of the great street photographers.  He will explore the genre from the gritty black and white images of Don McCullin to the colours and vibrancy of Alex Webb, whilst not forgetting the pioneering images and approach of Henri Cartier-Bresson.

In addition, another committee member, Alec Brown, will demonstrate the use of timelapse and hyperlapse in photographic practice. The first is when a number of still images are converted into a video and hyperlapse is where the camera seems to move through the scene. 

The evening will conclude with members showing their images inspired by a walk taken with professional photographer Lucy Kayne in Staverton Thicks and also from a talk given last month by professional photographer David Calvert.
