First meeting with Dave Fieldhouse

Our original speaker for the first meeting has unfortunately had to withdraw due to personal circumstances.  However, we are delighted to have secured the services of the highly regarded Lichfield based photographer, Dave Fieldhouse.  Dave is a frequent contributor to photography journals such as Amateur Photographer and many members will recall Dave's last visit to the club when he wowed us with some amazing landscape photography. This time he will be sharing his thoughts and techniques on urban and street photography - an evening not to be missed.
