11 January - Simon Harding Presents
We are very fortunate to have our very own Simon showing us a selection of his excellent photographic work, so soon after his hugely successful Maen-y-Groes event in December. We look forward to him explaining some of his ideas behind the photographs and hope to gain some insight into his photographing and processing techniques.
