The Beautiful Light - Jane Goodall

Speaker Meeting to be delivered Via Zoom

Jane Goodall is a cardiovascular research scientist but also a photographer and a judge for the East Anglian Federation of photographers. Originally from the Oxfordshire town of Didcot she traded the open skies of the Chiltons for the wind swept Fenland landscape that has been home for the last 25 years.

Inspired by the natural landscape and captivated by the fleeting moments of changing light and tides she has been drawn to the British coast, regions that include Dorset, Cornwall, Northumbria and the Scottish islands.

Her recent work focuses on local scenes, from the majestic views of geese on Kings College lawn in the mist, to rusting old diesel pumps hiding amongst the nettles in the fenland, and the local fauna and woodlands.

I have judged and lectured extensively in East Anglia/North London and the Midlands. My lecture ‘The Beautiful Light’ and ‘Family Photoshoots’ have been very well received. I deliver a great lecture experience Online. I look forward to meeting your club members and particularly those clubs that have previously been too far away to visit. My Beautiful light lecture reveals my approach to landscape photography or environmental family photoshoots. Lectures are 2 hours including a break but can be suited to your specific requirements. email [email protected]

 

Come along to find out how I work the light for maximum effect and consider perspective and visual cues to make successful landscape images. I will discuss the psychology of seeing and why you need to consider how the human brain works, it which will make a big difference to the success of your images. I will show you my essential kit for a landscape photographer, some of which might surprise you. See how I use the latest ‘online’ and smartphone applications to aid in image making and optimise the choice of landscape locations. Also what ‘not to do’ and avoid some landscape photography slipups.
Its a fun and interactive evening, even online! I will share my post processing approach and include a few photoshop confessions as well.

Please note this will be delivered Via Zoom. Please do not come to the Canberra Club
