Photographs by Mike Fogg and Terry Joyce of the Essex based Compass Photography Group whose approach is summed up in a quote attributed to Matt Hardy, a Dorset based photographer: “Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing beauty is what separates a snapshot from a photograph.”

Mike Fogg will give a free talk (50mins) at 11am in The Salvation Army on Saturday 20 May: Composition in Photography – Mike Fogg FCIPS: When you “take a photograph” you are really creating a work of art! Many of the same principles that apply to artists apply to photographers. In this session, Mike will use examples of his own “good” and “bad” photographs to highlight a number of easy to grasp techniques which will allow participants to improve their own photographs. In both 2019 and 2021 Mike won an international photography competitions with his images.
