The Loss of Allan Potts (posted May 2020)
Sadly we have to report the passing of Allan Potts, one of our club's Honorary Life Members. He was the clubs longest standing member and was known throughout the country and beyond for his outstanding nature photography. Anyone who saw one of Allan's presentations will not forget it. He used multiple slide projectors to produce stunning audio visual shows. That was in the days when it was not just a case of using a digital app to fairly easily put together an AV. Allan had the uncommon ability to not only be very knowledgeable about nature, but to also be able to photograph it at the highest standard and also present it at an incredibly high standard. His death is a sad loss to photography, the Whitley Bay club and to all his friends. Our condolences go to Mary, his wife (also a Life Member of WBPS). |
