A lecture by Anil Patel. Anil has this to say: My name is Anil, a self-taught photographer. My interest in photography started around 2018 but became a consistent passion around 2020. Over the past four years, I have achieved several photography awards and features both locally and further afield.  I have a passion for mobile phone photography, with specific interests in weather, reflections, differential focus, nature, and unique perspectives. In March 2024, I gained my biggest achievement to date and was shortlisted for the 2024 Mobile Photography Awards; part of the British Photography Awards. Every shot I take is with the mindset of capturing something through my own perspective, style, and freedom. This is what I am keen to share with you all.
