Marlow member, Rowena Wolton will be giving us a talk, but it's a mystery!

Tony North inspires us with his talk about his experience and knowledge of macro photography in the field, shooting insects and other invertebrates. It covers his philosophy and approach to photography as an art. Tony will of course show lots of his best macro images, but the talk is about far more than a set of pretty pictures.

Michael Lurie judges our three cups competitions: 

• Colour Print
• Monochrome Print
• Macro Print

Marlow hosts the Five Clubs Competition where we compete with five other local clubs. 

Most photographers think you can only get good sport pictures if you have a fast telephoto lens and a press pass. This talk covers numerous sports where you can get great images without the need for expensive equipment or the need for a press pass. It also explains how to apply for sports that you do need some form of accreditation in order to take photographs. 
It explains the type of equipment I use, and how finding the right viewpoint is essential. Sports covered are Boxing, Cyclocross, Jet ski, Superbikes at Brands Hatch, Ice Hockey, Grass Track, Judo, Table Tennis and much more.
