THE South Wales Argus Camera Club has 4,700-plus members and we’ve been asking them to pick five photographs which tell a story for them.

Today we meet Lee James Kershaw, of Cwmbran.

He said: "I am semi-retired and photography is part of my life.

"Everywhere I go, I am looking for shots to take and everyday I look at hundreds of other peoples' photos on social media, for ideas and inspiration, not to mention the hundreds of hours of training videos I have amassed and courses to complete.

"Editing is just as important as taking the photos, and I spend several hours a day working on shots from my vast collection of photos from here, there and everywhere."
