Despite the pandemic, lock-downs and having to work from home for most of the year with limited equipment and facilities 8 resilient photography students at the Lincoln College got their show open on time as planned this month.

I visited the Sam Scorer Gallery on Monday May 17th, the day before the opening to talk to the students about their work and to photograph them building their exhibition.

The students, who are all members of the Royal Photographic Society worked well together as a team, and helped each other throughout the day. There was a great community feel to it all. We were also joined by three of their tutors, Andrew Precious ARPS, Daniel Rapley and Alistair Smith who were on hand to help the students if needed.

Two other RPS members joined me on Monday, Robert Herringshaw ARPS traveled over from Gloucestershire, bringing with him a splendid machine cut photo-book of a helter skelter to show the students, and Richard Hildred ABIPP showed them some prints he had made using a process that goes back to 1850 of photographs he took 50 years ago.

A special message to the students from the President of the Royal Photographic Society

When the President of the Royal Photographic Society read this post he asked me to add a few words he has for the students......

“What a fantastic exhibition.  Such an eclectic mix of styles and genres but the work of all eight students demonstrated a clarity of vision and maturity of technique that would normally be expected only of more experienced professional photographers.  The exhibited work is a credit to the students and to the teaching staff.  I was delighted to see that the students are all Members of the Royal Photographic Society.  I hope they have derived great benefit from their membership and, over the coming years, will continue to do so.  I look forward to seeing the students progress through the Society’s Distinctions programme, using them as I have done, as stepping stones in their development as professional photographers … although I think I noticed that one of the students has already achieved his Fellowship!"

Simon Hill HonFRPS, President of the RPS
