The Way I See It - Chris Upton
As requested by MANY people within the Camversation community, I'm pleased to have Chris Upton joining to talk about his photography.
From Chris:
The most commonly asked question I get is, “how do you see a picture”? Whilst people might be thinking about composition when asking this question, actually there is much more to it than that. In this talk, I share my learnings from over 30 years of photography and explain my 7 step plan to achieve better images. Packed with hints and tips it will help you appraise where you are on your photographic journey and inspire you to continue your development taking your photography to the next level.

“Two of my great passions in life are travel and photography. I have been fortunate to travel widely and it is an amazing experience to observe and photograph a variety of cultures, people and landscapes. I hope that through my photographs I can bring a little of this to the viewer and inspire others to enjoy the beauty and diversity of the world for themselves”.
