Frank Richards: Recent Work

Since retiring 20 plus years ago, photography has provided Frank with a creative outlet and is an important part of his life.  

As a member of the Dallas Camera Club for 17 years, Frank Richards is a true Master of Photography. He has participated in the club’s competitions in the Master Class winning numerous awards.  Frank teaches classes for the Dallas Camera Club and other local groups. He has been fortunate to attend quite a few workshops with internationally recognized photographers.

Frank has been fairly successful in other competitions with winning images in the State Fair of Texas, Trinity River Contest and the PSA International Exhibition.  

Frank’s photographic interests are quite eclectic.  When asked, he generally says that he enjoys shooting anything that does not move.  His favorite subjects are landscapes, places and things.

What he will talk about:

Frank has produced a lot of work over the past 10 years that club members have not seen. In his presentation, he will talk about what he has been doing and share some of images that are representative of his body of work.

He will also provide some insights into some of the gear and processing techniques that he is currently using.
