Awinning presentation
Ayr Photographic Society won the Photography News Camera Club of the Year 2015/16, and part of the prize package from competition sponsors Canon was a presentation to club members by globally renowned landscape and travel photographer, David Noton. Since Ayr PS was formed in 1905, the society has heard many outstanding speakers but the
50 or so members who attended David Noton’s Chasing The Light Roadshow were treated to perhaps the most entertaining, informative and visually stimulating presentation ever experienced. The quality and presentation of the landscape and travel imagery on show were truly outstanding and had the audience totally enthralled throughout with comments and
feedback ranging from “superbly inspiring” to “truly awesome”. Ayr PS has launched into its 2016/17 syllabus and this September saw two fantastic talks by Mark Littlejohn (2014 Landscape Photographer of the Year) and Alasdair Macleod (Scottish Press photographer).
