The Prints and the Paper - Chris Palmer, in Hall

Tue 14 Nov 2023 7:30pm

A busy national PAGB judge and popular lecturer, Chris has visited more than 260 different camera clubs, and judged many regional, national and international exhibitions.  He is a Fellow of the RPS, serves on the Visual Art Panel as Deputy Chair, and provides advice at RPS distinction advisory days. 

Chris is a member of Amersham Photographic Society, and is delighted to be a member of the prestigious London Salon.

Within this lecture I will show a wide variety of images, and discuss some of the considerations and decisions that were taken when the print was made. (The choice of print density, tonality, colour saturation, and paper surface all play an important part in the final success of a print). As a general rule I have always followed the maxim of getting the image right at the taking stage, so my aim is to produce a print that portrays the original image in the best possible way. This is not a technical talk, but will hopefully make the audience aware of the personal approach I take both to my photography, and subsequent printing. When viewing the finished print I am guided by an underlying question...”Have I done the image justice?”
