Gwynfa members Jeff Thomas & Dave Owen, arguably two of our quirkiest photographers, lead us through an evening of their prints. Goodness knows what they’ll have in store for us. Be afraid!
Following their visit with the Ross Roadshow, and by popular demand, Sandra and Steve join us to share a collection of Multiple Exposure and ICM images made in camera with only minor Lightroom adjustments.

With no expense spent, this evening we bring you Alec Stewart, one of the UK’s foremost Wildlife Photographers. Alec is a 27 times winner of Gwynfa Photograher of the Year and a member of the ilustrious Gwynfa 10 (for all those of us who have scored 10 and under in competition). We are so lucky to be able to get him to come all the way from Gwaunmiskin. Tonight he’ll tell us about the secrets behind being a wildlife photographer.
As it’s November 5th, can we expect some fireworks too?
Your votes are vital!
