About This Event

A fleeting encounter, an animal’s expression or a moment of unexpected behaviour—wildlife photography gives us the chance to notice what might otherwise pass us by. Join Michael Watson for an illustrated journey through a selection of his best wildlife photographs from 2021–2024. This new talk follows the continuing development of his photography, bringing together memorable images that reflect his eye for the natural world. Michael’s work was highly commended in the 2021 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition , and his photographs have also been selected for inclusion in the 2025 British Wildlife Photography Awards book . Whether you’re a wildlife enthusiast, a keen photographer or simply enjoy seeing nature in greater detail, this is an opportunity to appreciate the observation, patience and timing behind a compelling wildlife image. Michael will present this talk via Zoom. Join fellow members at the Humfrey Rooms, Castilian Terrace, Northampton , to enjoy the evening together, or watch from home. The Zoom link will be added to this event listing.
