About this event

René Krekels is a biologist-turned-photographer from the Netherlands who reveals the secret lives of insects and other tiny creatures through macro and high-speed imagery. Drawing on his zoological training, he freezes a dragonfly’s wingbeat and even captured an acid-spraying wood ant—an image that won 1st prize in the Close-up Photographer of the Year “Insects” category.

Published in leading nature magazines, René’s award-winning work comes to life in his signature show, “Bedroom Secrets of Small Animals.” With evocative music and insightful commentary, he transports viewers into an intimate world where beauty and function converge.

During this special online event for Frodsham & District Photographic Society, René will pull back the curtain on his process—covering lighting setups, lens choices, timing techniques and the “making of” each frame. Expect a blend of scientific insight, creative vision and practical advice that will inspire you to see and photograph biodiversity in a whole new light.

Unfortunately we can only make recordings available to members of Frodsham & District PS, so don't buy a ticket if you can't watch the talk live.

Organized by

We are a small and welcoming photographic society, based around the market town of Frodsham, just 10 miles from the historic city of Chester in the North West of England. Our meetings take place between September and April each year, with meetings equally divided between online sessions and in-person gatherings.

Each season, we present an inspiring programme of external speakers who deliver online talks covering a broad spectrum of photographic topics. Non-members are invited to join these sessions for a small fee, which helps support the society's operational costs.

We welome new members - visit our website at frodsham.photos for more information.
