Ian Hulme FRPS EFIAP
Ian’s boundless enthusiasm for photography began at the age of nineteen and has never waned. He was a member of the Newcastle Society for many years and on retirement he moved across to the west and joined Grange club. His photographic interests are wide and varied and despite his enthusiasm for Nature photography his Fellowship panel was of church interiors. Ian is currently carrying out meticulous research into high end compact cameras with amazing results.
Paul Foley FRPS EFIAP MPAGB makes a very welcome return to the Region with his latest work. A dedicated landscape photographer he constantly seeks to express the beauty and tranquillity of the natural world. He gained a Fellowship in both colour prints and colour slides and he is currently a member of the RPS Visual Art Panel. Paul is an active member of Arena and since taking early retirement he has organised a very successful series of landscape workshops in both UK and abroad.
Priscilla Thomas FRPS MPAGB makes a very welcome return to the Region with her latest work. She may be small in stature but she is big in energy and imagination. Her Fellowship was achieved with a panel of prints in the genre of Abstract and this encouraged her to continue down this avenue of abstract and imaginative photography.
Priscilla has published a fascinating book, with forward by Sir George Pollock FRPS, which chronicles the development [and details the method] of her work from Impressionism to Constructivism. She has lectured extensively, exhibited at the RPS and taught workshops on “Exploring the Photographic Abstract”.
Priscilla is unique and her photography is original.
