Herbert Ponting events
Cancelled
Film show at St John's Place, Lower BemertonThe Civic Society and the Bemerton Film Society will be showing The Great White Silence, filmed by Ponting, on March 18th. He recorded almost every aspect of the 1910 expedition – the scientific work, life in camp, the local wildlife, the preparations for the assault on the Pole – and edited his footage into this remarkable feature, complete with vivid tinting and toning. The alien beauty of the landscape is brought dramatically to life and the challenges facing the expedition revealed in brilliant detail.
For this event there is one admission charge of £6 for all - payment at the door. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available at 50p, or a glass of wine for £2.The doors will open at 6.00pm, with the film starting at 6.30, and ending at about 8.25. Some parking is available opposite the church, in the small car park and on the road. The address is Lower Road, Bemerton, Salisbury SP2 9NT.Plaque unveilingThe plaque to Herbert Ponting will be unveiled at 4pm on Saturday March 21st, at the location of his birthplace, 21 Oatmeal Row in Salisbury Market Place.

Self Portraits or Selfies
Self portraits are as old as photography. Selfies are a newer version?
- But for innovative Self Portraits you can scarcely find better than those of Juno Calypso or Brooke Shaden or Polly Penrose or Natalie Krick. These you see are all women. I first came across such people at Messums gallery. I took a U3A group there last year. Richard, David and Terry came with us. We do not actually want to emulate their styles but the ingenuity and enterprise is praiseworthy.
- There seem to be few men who do self portraits. But I have come upon an Interesting Collection by several male photographers that could be worth pursuing.
