Painting With Light 18th April

TENBY AND DISTRICT CAMERA CLUB

‘Painting with Light’, this was the theme title of the clubs guest speaker Rob Lloyd FRPS, DPAGB, EFIAP on Thursday 18^th April at the Community Hall, St Florence.

On this visit to the Camera Club Rob enthralled the members with his superb landscape and portrait photographs. Rob is a member of the Merthyr Tydfal Camera club and has done particularly well in there club competitions this year gaining a 1^st place in both colour and monochrome prints and a joint 3^rd in monochrome.

Ron explained to members there is no better way of bringing a dramatic scene to life than with a hint of movement, whether it is a branch swaying in the breeze or long grasses being buffered around. Look for creative possibilities, a black dramatic sky is always impressive and with any portrait, the focus is on the eyes or actually on the bridge between them.

Rob showed members many of the images taken in Switzerland in the Zermatt area, where he uses the natural light to its full advantage and then to a winter sunrise in the Brecon Beacons and many landscapes in the Welsh valleys. His portrait images of the Minor’s together with all of the landscapes showed what an excellent photographer Rob Lloyd is.

A lot more of his images can be seen on his website (www.roblloyd.co.uk)
