?IMPROVE your photos by keeping them simple? is the advice of local photographer Rex Haythornwaite, who gives an illustrated talk on the subject in Okehampton next week.
Mr Haythornwaite aims to show anyone, no matter what sort of camera they use, how adopting a few simple principles can lead to photographs admired by all.
Mr Haythornwaite has been interested in photography all his life, starting in the 1950s with a Halina twin-lens reflex but now utilising the most modern cameras, computers, scanners and printers to produce posters, calendars and cards as well as snaps.
Having grown up in, and spent his working life associated with the countryside, it is no surprise his primary photographic interests are landscapes and wildlife.
If you have an interest in photography, head along to the talk at the Ockment Centre, Okehampton, admission free, on Friday, September 3, at 8pm.
