Club Meeting “Dirty Pictures” 20th October 2026

On Tuesday the 20th Morpeth Camera Club welcomed guest speaker Dave Dixon LRPS who gave members a presentation on “Dirty Pictures”.
Dave, a member of the Alnwick and District Camera Club has a passion for Street Photography, showing the harder, gritty side of Newcastle, the industrial decay around the subways and alleyways of Manors, Swan House and surrounding area. Dave also took members on a tour of other interesting sights around the Northumberland.

Further afield Dave showed us street scenes of London and areas of the Underground where many of us would not have the courage to visit. Dave has a preference to take his photographs without people, this meant early mornings and late evenings and a great deal of patience to get his ideal photograph.

                    

Antwerp Mansion also featured, this is a 200 year old Gothic era house in Manchester. The Mansion is a thriving Arts Centre which can be hired for Filming, Photography, Theatre and is a hot spot for the Paranormal.
Club Chairman Jeremy Cooper Thanked Dave for an informative and inspiring presentation.
