Around 18 of us were pleased to welcome back Diane Leopard who gave us a photographic presentation and talk about the emotional impacts of cancer diagnosis and treatment. Diane began her photographic career when she won a camera in a competition. Her talk is a very personal illustration of her own journey, told through a large collection of photographs.
Each picture is used to illustrate a particular aspect of the journey, and it was very interesting to see the power of this when looking around the room at the faces of our friends. Certain photos struck a chord with different individuals in a way that words alone cannot. It was a powerful presentation, and sparked quite a long discussion within the group afterwards. Our thanks to Diane for giving up her time to share this with us all.
Diane has also penned a poem, published on this site titled: “YOU” which can be accessed via the site menu.
There is an earlier post including a link for those wishing to know a little more about Diane and her work in this field.
