RPS SW Visual Art Group will meet again on Saturday, 18^th November 2023 at Victory Hall, Broaclyst (near Exeter). 

The event will start with a presentation from Tony Worobiec FRPS.  Tony is a Fine Art photographer and a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society.  He studied Fine Art at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne and having spent 18 years as Head of a large design faculty in Dorset, Tony left teaching to concentrate on photography and writing.   Author of 17 books, Tony regularly writes articles for photographic magazines in UK and abroad.  He has won awards for photography in the UK and internationally and his work is in the permanent collections of The Royal Photographic Society and The Fox Talbot Museum.  Tony is also an assessor on the Visual Art Panel of the RPS.  More information can be found at https://www.tonyworobiec.com/about.html

The title of Tony’s presentation is “The Water’s Edge”.  This presentation is largely a celebration of the British coast.  Tony will be discussing a variety of techniques one may wish to use in such locations. The presentation finishes off with a few images taken abroad illustrating how the skills acquired photographing the British coast can be applied else-where. Tony believes that no other genre of photography can better reflect the vagaries of weather – “presenting an interrupted panorama, the skies one can witness from the water's edge are unparalleled”. 

Whether you are an accomplished Visual Art photographer or just starting to explore this genre, come and join us and share your work (print/ dpi) in a friendly and informal environment. 

Bring your own lunch (a kitchen is available) or have a lunch in one of the nearby village pubs. There is also a village shop close by.
