HELICON FOCUS
According to the optical laws, the closer the subject, the smaller the depth of field. But there is a way to break these rules. Times when using software tools in photography was perceived as tricking are far-off now. Things changed and purchasing program licenses turned to be as essential both among professionals and enthusiasts as buying a tripod or a polarizing filter.
Helicon Focus was one of the first focus stacking programs to be developed and in a decade became a truly renowned solution in the worldwide photography community. Focus stacking technique grows more and more common in diverse photography types – from photomicrography to landscapes – producing images with extended depth of filed. Actually, with Helicon Focus nothing but your creative concept sets limits to the DOF. Read More ...

Symposium on War Photography. 19th April 2015 at the Winchester Discovery Centre
For the past year the DVJ group of the RPS have been working towards an exhibition and symposium to commemorate the Great War. The Exhibition, Then and Now, is at the Discovery Centre in Winchester from 1-28th April.
The Symposium is at the Performance Space in the Discovery Centre on 19 April, starting at 11.00 hours.
We have a fine line up of speakers:
Dr Del Barrett ARPS. Metaphors we die by. An overview of the inextricable link between language as a means of persuasion and war. The use of language as a means of garnering support for war is far from new. In her presentation Del Barrett looks at the different techniques that have been used since WW1, including neologism euphemism and metaphor, and shows how such devices can have deadly effects on those in the war arena, including the war photographers.
Alison Baskerville. Women and Conflict. The portrayal of women as victims of war is something we see regularly on the news. But what happens when the woman chooses a uniform and takes on the more male dominated aspect of warfare? This talk will explore the idea of women and war and the images that represent them.
Dr RM Callender FRPS Photography in the Great War. The profusion of images that emerged to remind us of the conflict between 1914 and 1918 prompted Ron Callender to examine the role of photography in the Great War. His aim was to find out why photography was important to both the allies and the axes powers, and to gather examples of social and professional photography from both sides.
Brett Killington. The importance of documenting the remains of WWI. Brett has spent the last four years documenting the tunnels and other remains of WWI and he will discuss why they have historical value and the importance of documenting what remains for the future.
Dr. Hilary Roberts. Imperial War Museum Research Curator of Photography An Introduction to War Photography. War photography is a complex but frequently misunderstood genre which is almost as old as photography itself. This talk will consider the nature, origins and evolution of the key formative influences on photographers who take war as their subject .
Further details can be found at: http://www.rps.org/events/2015/april/19/symposium-on-war-photography
Bookings can be made via the website (above) or by emailing dvj@rps.org

The Other Glyn Edmunds
I’m Glyn Edmunds, the Chairman of Pyle & Porthcawl Photographic Society in South Wales, and I was wondering whether you would be able to do me a favour by informing your members about a group Kenya Wildlife Photo Safari I am organising for July/August.
You can find me on the Welsh Photographic Federation website under clubs (http://thewpf.co.uk/?page_id=52), Presenters (http://thewpf.co.uk/?page_id=1348) and the Safari (http://thewpf.co.uk/?p=14330).
I am passionate about Photography, Animals and East Africa, and I go on custom designed private safaris as often as I am able. After intense negotiations, I am now able to offer other photographers the chance to come with me at less than half the normal price!
The information sheets about this amazing deal to Kenya, including seeing the Great Wildebeest Migration on the Maasai Mara, can be downloaded at http://glynedmunds.co.uk/docs/Special-Kenya-Photo-Safari-2015-Combined.pdf or via http://glynedmunds.co.uk/kenya_photo_safari.html.
Here are a few links to images from my last safari to the locations involved.

“Members of your Club are cordially invited to Chichester Camera Club’s brand new and exciting Spring Exhibition on 11 and 12 April 2015, details of which can be found on the attached flyer.
Print exhibitors have had the choice of varying screen spaces with the freedom to display virtually any type of work they wish with no rules on size, subject matter technique, etc. whilst PDI workers are each allowed to have up to 6 images projected, again with no subject ruling. Based on our previous, similar exhibitions, this freedom of choice has resulted in a considerable display of artistic talent. The day has also proved to be a great social occasion.
We hope you will be able to visit us and look forward to meeting you on either 11 or 12th April. See our web site at http://chichestercameraclub.org.uk/ for directions.
