John Gravett is drawing on his considerable creativity, photographic skill and energy for this online event. Best known now for his Lake District photography courses and workshops, John’s prolific career in photography has seen him go from sports photography in the 1980s, on to photographing gigs, theatre, architecture, commercial subjects and landscape.

His informative and interesting presentation will show a creative view of everyday objects, including things we all have in our homes, as well as gardens and things you might see on your ‘necessary exercise’ outings. John will make good use of his diverse professional background and years of teaching experience to cover a variety of techniques, possibly including making full aperture macro lens pics, focus stacking and some creative ideas involving what he used to call ‘slide sandwiching’.

You will need to book online in order to be able to access this event. This event is free for DIG members but DIG members still have to purchase a ticket (free) so we can capture your details.

There seems to have been issues with the instructions that you receive when buying a ticket. The Instructions can be accessed here.

This event will take place via video-conference using Zoom. You will be emailed a link shortly before the meeting which will enable you to connect to the session. During the event you will be able to see John and his images. You will be able to interact with him via chat enabling you to pose questions after his session.

Please do not share the link you will receive to anyone else. This will prevent anyone interfering with the presentation.

If you have not used Zoom before, it is really quite easy. You can use a computer, a laptop, a tablet (iPads are good for this) or, at a push, a smartphone. After registering you will receive a document with more information about what you need to join the online event, how it will work and how to set up a practice session with us in advance if you have no experience.

(Contact digexpo@rps.org or digweb@rps.org if you need help with Zoom and to test it with you if required.)
