Leamington Spa Photography Exhibition Opens This Weekend

Posted on Apr 24, 2024

The Leamington Spa Photographic Society (LSPS) is set to open its annual photographic exhibition this weekend at All Saints’ Parish Church in Leamington Spa

Running from 27th April to 5th May, the exhibition is free for the public and will feature approximately 200 prints and digital images from photographers across Warwickshire.

Showcasing Local Talent

Among the highlights of this year’s exhibition is ‘Mirror Image’ by Yvonne Shillington, which earned the top award in the Colour Print category at the society’s recent competition.

The competition, judged by Louise Hill MCPF from the Permajet Photographic Academy, showcased a high standard of entries, reflecting the vibrant photographic community in the region.

The exhibition also includes notable works such as ‘There Goes the Bus’ by Martin Johnson, ‘Ghost Train’ by Ken Pinfold, and ‘Last Days of Autumn’ by Keith Roberts, which represent a range of photographic styles and subjects.
