Next week we will welcome award winning wildlife photographer Kevin Pigney ARPS DPAGB ASINWP to the giant screen at Unit13, when he will be presenting his talk called "Passion for Wildlife".
Kevin will share lots of his favourite images, but more importantly he'll explain his approach and how he actually gets the images. Some behind the scenes on setting up a project and a chapter on different camera techniques .........
Kevin is a Norfolk lad so this meeting will be Zoomed into the clubrooms.

Here are a couple of examples of Kevin's work:

Costs remain the same at £8 for one class, plus £3 for each additional class, ie £8, £11, £14, £17, £20, £23 for 1 - 6 classes. You can access the exhibition website by clicking on the link below where you can view the entry terms and conditions, including class definitions. photoexhib.com/wcpfex/login.phpThere will also be a link to the entry system on the Exhibitions page of the WCPF website.
