Paul Gallagher is a outstanding landscape photographer and sits on the RPS Fellowship Advisory Panel. His talk tonight will be delivered by Zoom into our homes.
He has spent much of the last seven years exploring the abandoned landscapes of America, the bitter cold elemental landscapes of winter in Hokkaido, Japan, and the vastness and grandeur of the granite spires of Yellow Mountain in China. He says the three environments ‘Could not be more different, but as a photographer, they left me spellbound.’

In Search Of…
Bill Ward is a multi-award winning photographer and actor, born and raised in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. His primary photographic subject matter is landscapes, whether natural, urban or industrial. He specialises in creative photography, and is particularly drawn to water. Constantly in search of peace and quiet, his photography is a response, and in many ways an antidote, to the time he spends as an actor working in the public eye.
