Rajeev got a couple of patriotic picture-book photos from the Severn Valley Railway using his Canon 400D:

Julian’s 450D captured some pictures that could have been taken at any time over the last 50 years – only the mountainbikes give it away!

The traditional shallow depth of field firebucket shot:

Xena’s old-but-trusty Sona A230 did a great job on the colours at Shugborough. Modern cameras would have done no better!

Culzean Castle gardens are not to be missed, here are few images to show why, all taken by students on the day of the course:

We were delighted to be asked to run a photography course for the National Trust. Our happy band of 8-13 year olds did a fine job, aided and abetted by the NT’s fine Educational Officer Anne Butler.

Apart from the pictures with children in them, all these were taken by the children. Can you spot the ones taken by the nine year olds?

If you want photographs taken with flair, style and humour, ask your children to take them!

Educationalist Dr. Baldev Singh came along to Ashton Court in Bristol for our photography course and sent us this lovely note and picture:

Hi guys

Festival. Captured this picture which summed up the great day on the
harbour..very hot, lots of families and children..full of life
