Namibia – a flying and climbing adventure by Ashley Francis CPAGB

On Thursday November 23rd at 7.15 for a 7.30pm start, our guest speaker, Ashley Francis CPAGB will be presenting "Namibia – a flying and climbing adventure".


Visitors are most welcome - fee for the evening just £5. You can purchase tickets online at www.ticketsource.co.uk/newbury-photography-club



A true travel adventure-of-a-lifetime telling the story of piloting a light aircraft over Southern Africa and Namibia to climb a mountain in the desert in 1990. No guidebooks, no backup and entirely on our own, not everything goes to plan!


Illustrated entirely using digitally restored slides shot on film. The first 20 mins covers how to digitise your old 35 mm images and use modern tools to bring them back to life.


A geophysicist and geostatistician by training, Ashley has over 30 years world-wide oil industry experience of exploration, development and production geophysics. He has lectured at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa, at the University of Reading and at Imperial College.
