Author Event - Steve Bloom

'Living Africa'

Steve Bloom, born in South Africa, is a photographic artist who specialises in evocative images of the natural world. Famed for his books 'Spirit of the Wild' and 'Untamed', his pictures are seen around the world while his books have been published in 15 languages.

His latest book, 'Living Africa' expresses the essence and diversity of this gigantic continent. From the tallest sand dunes in the world to the swirling markets of Ethiopia and the windswept rocks and gullies of South Africa's Table Mountain, he captures the colours and cultures of Africa today.

During this illustrated talk, Steve will showcase a collection of stunning slides from his book and it's a rare opportunity for all budding photographers to meet and quiz a renowned photographer on his style and techniques.
