British wildlife photographer of the year 2010

The winners of the 2010 competition have been announced. The winning photograph shows a familiar bird in its conventional setting, but the visual impact is extraordinary. Competition judge Greg Armfield from WWF said: “This is a unique and striking image. One that captures perfectly the power, chaos and intensity of the ocean as it surrounds the majestic gull.”

Winning images and pictures receiving judges’ commendations form part of a series of nationwide exhibitions, including a premier launch and awards event at Hoopers Gallery, London.

Open College of Art

I have embarked on a major challenge, over a period of years I am hoping to obtain a BA degree in photography through the Open College of Arts .

The first module is the "art of of photography".

Details about the degree

One reason for doing the degree is to provide my focus to developing my photographic skills. The course whilst delaing with technical skills places a greater emphasis on compostion and the art of photography.

As I will no longer be Chairman of Malden Camera Club after January 2011I will have a little more time to devote to doing photography and talking to people.

MCC Meeting 14 October

Cliff Carter is to give us a talk on Photoshop Elements. He enjoys being able to help members get more enjoyment from using Elements and most of my evenings depend to a large extent on audience participation.

Anything from the basics of getting an image into the computer, to correcting imperfections and making new images, using the many available tools and techniques.

This was my entry for the Club safari Competition. The images  feature a nuclear power station, lighthouse, decaying fishing boats and houses; all set in the bleak shingle landscape of Dungess on the South coast. Because the land is so flat the sky is very big. I highly recommend Dungeness for anintersting day out
