Title: Any good photographers on the Trip.
Post by: McGirr on December 29, 2017, 09:25:17 PM: Interested to see if we have any good photographers on the trip.

I am good at using my phone for pictures but that's about all. We may be doing a magazine article about the trip.

Kerry is keen to learn, and I was going to send her to one of those weekend courses, but they are still quite rushed and technical....I might look into local camera club...

PS...it will be a good trip... :cup: sure you can't make it ;D

Tips.
Shoot in raw, so they can be processed later on.
At least use rule of thirds.
Don't be afraid to fill the frame.

I am sure Symon and others have a few tips.

Looking forward to following the trip online.

Frostd. ;)
