Tea/Coffee Break

           

After Our Break

   
                 Joe Kennedy makes a return, this time with a presentation of his photography work
                  Joe started photography in the early 1980's with all types of film cameras
                  He has been in and out of darkrooms, developing and printing his own B/W film
                  also doing photo shoots for various groups which resulted in exhibitions in the 90's....Below you will see some of his amazing talent
                                                                               

                                            

    
              But it wasn't until 2008 after receiving a Nikon camera that he took up Photography again following 12 years of family life            



                   
                 Joe soon joined the Boyle Camera Club and was on the committee for 13 years


                                                                             

He thought himself everything he knows and has an eye for Street Photography, Environmental Photography, Landscape and Seascape Photography also Long Exposure



 Joe is also keen on Digital manipulation to a basic extent
