Join **Lenses of Croydon** tomorrow, **Tuesday 10 November**, as the **Croydon Photography Forum** welcomes local photographer **John Okeefe**. A bus driver who carries his camera every day, John finds opportunities to take photographs during lunch breaks and on his journey home. His interest began with taking pictures on his phone while hiking, turning to YouTube to learn how to get more from its camera. Discovering street photography led him to buy a mirrorless camera and attend evening classes with CALAT, where he completed Level 1 and Level 2 photography qualifications. Just over three years into street photography, John is also exploring conceptual work, using images to give shape to ideas he has carried for some time. He will share his photographs and talk about what he has learnt along the way, including how he fits photography around his working life. There will also be time for questions and discussion. As always, the Forum is open to everyone. You don’t need an expensive camera or to know your aperture from your elbow. If you enjoy taking photographs, want to improve or simply enjoy seeing how other people view the world, you’ll be very welcome. We meet at the **Smile Hub on London Road, West Croydon**, in partnership with the **Friends of the Smile Hub**. Please arrive at **6.45pm for a 7pm start**. There will also be a **fundraising raffle**, with tickets at **£2 each or three for £5**, to help keep the Forum running and accessible to everyone. Please bring cash if you would like to take part.
