Looking forward to this presentation from Leigh Preston. Tuesday at 8pm at the Dublin Camera Club.

Leigh has been taking pictures for over forty years. His work has been mainly thematic, making images as a series. He has a relatively specific approach to what he chooses to make pictures of, and he relies heavily on atmospherics, dramatic lighting and strong storylines to convey an individual style. A lot of his personal work is taken either in isolated places or of buildings and landscapes that are well past their ‘sell-by’ date. A lot of his work is monochrome, using both digital and darkroom processes, depending on the ‘feel’ he wants from the finished print.

Last night, we held our annual friendly battle against Malahide Camera Club. We were delighted to welcome so many members from Malahide, and with a full house, the atmosphere was fantastic.

Many thanks to Eric O'Neill AIPF, who judged the competition so fairly. The standard of images was exceptionally high, making Eric’s task extremely difficult, and it was a very close contest throughout.

In the end, Dublin Camera Club won the day with a margin of just 3 points. We look forward to the rematch next year!

Thank you to the lovely group from Dublin Camera Club for joining me for our first photo workshop of 2026. We were so lucky with the weather. And, of course thanks to Noreen for all the baking and looking after everyone so well.
This was Clogher beach on Friday evening at sunset.
