    Relaxed, informative & enjoyable. The 2 other students Brian & Andy were like minded so we all got along great. Alex (tutor) was well informed and knowledgeable offering helpful advice and guidance but allowing the group to trial different new skills. The setting Lady Lever art gallery is outstanding and what a great opportunity to visit and take a look around. All round fantastic, educational and productive morning. Thank you

    Very informative and highly knowledgeable host, Alex was able to adapt to the different cameras very easily and walk us through the process. I quickly felt at ease with going manual and while needing a lot of practice feel ready and able to get out and shoot. Will definitely be booking on to further sessions.

    Title or Location: Crossing
    I went to Kings Parade, New Brighton as it was a sunny evening. At the time the sun was lowering into a bank of cloud but it was clear below it. As I was walking the beach I noticed people on a further sand bar that I thought would make interesting subjects as silhouettes. I then noticed a couple starting to cross the water and the composition began to evolve that resulted in this image. Nikon D4s, 80-200mm, f:5.0 @ 1/1250 with a whole stop minus EV.

    Title or Location: This Still Life Photograph of "Grapes, Strawberry's and Wine" was taken in my bedroom in Orange County California.
    This image is a Still Life Composition of "Berries, Wine and Grapes" that I created on a rainy day in my bedroom. I used no fancy Studio Lighting at all. My only light source was a hand-held flashlight that I kept moving rapidly. It was an experiment in Light Painting when I couldn't go outside to shoot.
