About This Event

Bring along up to two digital images or prints for an evening of friendly, constructive discussion and fresh perspectives on your photography. You might choose photographs you’re considering for a future competition, images you’re pleased with but feel could be stronger, or a picture that hasn’t quite worked and you’re not sure why. Each member will be invited in turn to critique an image, considering what works well and suggesting how it might be improved. From composition and cropping to lighting, colour and presentation, we’ll explore how different choices can influence the finished photograph. There will also be an opportunity to hear the photographer’s intentions and consider whether the image achieves what they hoped. This isn’t a competition, so there are no scores to worry about. The emphasis is on sharing ideas, practising how to give useful, thoughtful feedback and becoming more confident in assessing our own photographs. Seeing an image through someone else’s eyes can reveal something we’ve overlooked—and sometimes a small suggestion makes a surprisingly big difference.
