Wrapping Up Monochrome and Moving Into Macro

Last night marked the end of our recent series of monochrome-focused meetings at Otley Camera Club, with a lively Q&A evening to round things off.

Members were invited to submit their questions in advance, and several of our more experienced photographers prepared short presentations to answer them. The evening covered a wide range of topics — from histograms to presets to printing — and provided plenty of inspiration for anyone exploring the art of black and white photography.

We also enjoyed a special presentation from Alistair How, who shared his Top Ten Monochrome Images. His work offered a fascinating look at different approaches to light, texture, and mood, and made for a fitting finale to our monochrome series.

Next week, we’re delighted to welcome Andrew Wakefield to the clubhouse for an evening dedicated to Macro Photography. Andrew will be exploring techniques for capturing those beautiful illuminated fungi shots we often admire — and with fungi season currently in full swing, the timing couldn’t be better!

It promises to be another great evening of learning and inspiration, and we look forward to seeing many of you there.
