Comments from 'Introduction to Photography' January 2010

I enjoyed it all

The whole format was pitched at an appropriate level for beginners and for those who had a bit of experience, I learned a great deal and will now keep my camera on ‘Av’ instead of ‘Programme’. I was pleasantly surprised that we weren’t being pointed at any particular brand of camera and that there was absolutely no sales pitch………not even to get us to sign up for more treks. A thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile experience – thanks for organising the great weather.

..most interesting?
Developing my creative eye and thinking outside the box.

Being in such a beautiful location and having the chance to concentrate on my photography

I really enjoyed having the chance to concentrate on my photography, and appreciated the guidance on how to compose photographs creatively. The trek also reinforced my technical knowledge, and made me realise that I do actually understand the technicalities now. Thank you so much for an enjoyable and informative morning in a beautiful location.

A good recap of basic technical aspects with some good ideas about looking at subjects in a different way. Constructive criticism on pictures taken was very useful too.

Nothing was boring!

I would happily have stayed all day, was having a great time and was sorry had to go home at lunchtime!

Did you enjoy the format?
Yes, like a school field trip for grown ups!

A very enjoyable half day of friendly, knowledgable and practical instruction in the art of taking good pictures in a great setting. Would rather have spent all day than a half day as was just getting into things and then had to go home but I will be practising and I will come again.
