Thursday 18th March at BPIC - Andy McInroy
16th March 2010
This Thursday BPIC has a guest lecture by Andy McInroy on landscape photography. Andy has a great website at http://www.andymcinroy.com/main.htm where you can browse his galleries of top class landscape photographs.
In particular, Andy has devoted a lot of effort into a 'Cave' Project -
"The Antrim coast is perhaps the most photographed section of coastline in Ireland. However, hidden under this rugged landscape are some dark and forgotten sea caves which are rarely visted.
Interestingly, a search of the old writings, etchings and photographs from the last two centuries yields some fantastic material relating to these old and unchanging places. The adventurous Victorians loved to row into these caves to take picnics, to paint and to snap photographs.
Many of the old photographs and etchings can still be found today in antique and curiosity shops. Seeing this old material has inspired me to revisit these long forgotten chambers of the Antrim Coast and to create a new photographic record of these secret places."
