"Hi Kylie,
I’m sorry to say that I missed the first part of your presentation because I was stuck in Manchester where trains had been cancelled, but, I am delighted to say that I managed to get home and catch the rest of it. It was so good to have you back at SLPS; we loved your images, your ideas, your positivity, your verbal presentation. In fact, everything. Such a good evening. Thank you.
With best wishes
Simon"

"Hi Kylie
A big thank you for your presentation to Knaresborough Camera Club. You gave us lots of useful tips on how to produce interesting and thought provoking black and white images and also on what judges would be looking for in images. Our first club competition this season is Mono so our members were keen to hear these tips.
Your presentation was very informative and entertaining. Your stories interlaced between the images added to the interest.
Thank you again and if we continue to use zoom for our speakers you will be on my list of potential speakers for the future.
With best wishes (from New Zealand)

- feedback from John Whitby (Vice President)
"Hi Kylie,
Just to say thank you once again for the excellent talk you gave us here at Leicester Forest last Thursday.
You showed us the whole range of your work from traditional images in portraiture, street, photojournalism and landscapes as well as some interesting creative images. Droste was not a familiar word but I will look out for the effect from now on as well as the chocolate!
It was interesting to see how much you have developed your style and technique and inspirational to see the enthusiasm you show in the distinctions you have gained both a home and internationally.
I look forward to see even more letters after your name when we see you next.
Best wishes
John"

Just to say thanks for a lovely evening last night. To share your journey in the way you did was very powerful, and with the way you didn't let you health problems stop you from getting on with your life, also attaining you dreams through photography with some outstanding images was indeed as I said very powerful, our members really appreciated your journey......
Many Thanks again for last night.

Review by Bill Cooke shared to the UK Club Photography Facebook Page
We had an excellent ZOOM talk yesterday evening by Kylie-ann Martin EFIAP BPE2* CPAGB LDPS
Ormskirk Camera Club UK4 h · Kylie-ann Martin EFIAP BPE2* CPAGB LDPS – “My Journey in MONO” Yesterday evening, Kylie ZOOMed in to our hut and homes from the Midlands, and gave an excellent presentation of her “Journey in Mono” Her delightful storytelling and striking images entertained us, as she explained how her editing and processing skills have progressed, allowing her to revisit some favourites as well as developing new techniques. With us all having been restricted with our travel recently, it was interesting to hear how she has used her locality to widen her creativity, and personal growth. She claims not to be a lucky photographer, but she clearly practices well, demonstrated by her qualifications. Thank-you Kylie-ann for an excellent evening |

- thank you from Jackie Franklin (Club Secretary)
"Your talk on Monday evening was so entertaining and thoroughly enjoyed by all Chet Valley Photography Club members. It was a shame that the time went by so quickly. I know a couple of members were inspired and went out the next day visiting local churches to look for interesting views inside.
For a club that has quite a few novice photographers, it was very nice to hear you emphasise that it does not matter if an image does not follow the “rules”, if the photographer likes the picture then that is ok!
I hope we are able to have another talk from you in the future.
Once again thanks very much"

"Hi Kylie
I would just like to reiterate our genuine thanks for your time and Mono presentation at our club last evening here in Conwy.
There was some positive feedback immediately after the meeting and I know that quite a few will be reviewing the recording.
Many of the members commented how impressed they were with the number of images taken in such a relatively small range.
So once again many thanks.
We shall look forward to welcoming you back again.
All the best

"Thanks so much for this evening Kylie, I really enjoyed it, one of the most heartfelt and personal “Journey” talks I’ve seen, it really felt it was a getting to know you talk – thanks for sharing 😊
It was also really useful to see how you picked out your successful images.....Next season, I’m going to put some focus on encouraging and supporting members in getting distinctions and accreditations. I’ve got Kevin to book a couple of speakers on the subject already, but would you do us a talk to a small group of interested members going though your FIAP and BPE acceptances? Also talk in more detail about your CPAGB panel images and maybe even your LDPS panel (I don’t know much about DPS distinctions, but I understand it’s essentially the same as LRPS, is that right?)
Thanks again for stepping in tonight, you are a life saver

"Hi Kylie
I'd just like to say how much I enjoyed your presentation last night to Gloucester Camera Club.
We left Sutton Coldfield over 40 years ago but I was brought up and went to school there.....
.......Anyway as I said that was a really great presentation showing your progress over the years. I look forward to the next one!
