Andrew Yates Exhibition at Fisherton Mill 6 to 29 May




Exhibitions at Fisherton Mill
Photographer Andrew Yates is showcasing a selection of his eye-catching animal portraits at Salisbury’s Fisherton Mill this May.
Yates is a former fashion photographer, but a move to the countryside has led him to turn to animal photography, and he now brings the same intensity of gaze to the animal kingdom that he used to photograph the fashion world.
The exhibition features a range of powerful animal portraits, with subjects including delightfully hairy Highland cattle, a group of inquisitive-looking stags, nervy terriers and pensive horses. There is also a dramatic image of an African white-backed vulture taken at the The Hawk Conservancy Trust, Andover, as part of a conservation project to save this endangered bird.
Over forty framed photographs, in black and white and colour, will be on display alongside a series of mounted prints, greeting cards and a range of soft furnishings printed with distinctive animal images.
For more information email admin@fishertonmill.co.uk or visit

The Photographic Angle FREE Exhibition Swindon

As someone who may be interested in photography, we would like to invite you and anyone you know who might also be interested, to our exhibition …

WHERE: The Quadrant, Stonehill Green, Westmead, Swindon SN5 7DJ
WHEN: Wednesday 18th to Sunday 22nd May 2016, open daily from 10am to 3pm
WHAT: Capturing and documenting the remarkable, inimitable visual beauty of the world has been a preoccupation for artists, scientists and photographers the world over as we seek to understand the marvel that is creation, both natural and man-made. However, the wonderment and admiration that we harbour for our beautiful world is far deeper than this material connection would suggest. Beauty is also present in our close encounters with the creatures we share the planet with and can be seen in their relationship with the natural world on which they depend.

A Beautiful World features the work of 19 photographers who have been moved by our beautiful world enough to document it in all its glory
COST: Entry is free - No tickets required
WHO: Anyone who you think may enjoy a photographic exhibition!
WEBSITE: www.thephotographicangle.co.uk

(Please note that dates may be subject to change. We advise you to check our website for the latest information prior to attendance. Only a selection of photographs from this exhibition will be shown in each gallery. As such, not every photograph will be guaranteed to feature in each location along the tour.
