S40 Local

Then there was snow.. oh and it was cold!

Just when we thought perhaps we had missed the snow February arrived and brought it with it! However snow of course provides all sorts of photo opportunities and besides being stuck indoors leafing through  100s of images to find the final 10 for our LRPS panel can be headache producing, so a chance or two to get out in the snow and frost certainly clears the head.

Actually it was quite a productive few weeks, a very successful night shoot in Sheffield saw a moonlit (if slightly nippy) night adding to the exposure challenge, ably taken up by our enthusiastic photographers. Particularly pleasing that two of our friends were previous participants from our workshop in October. The snow also brought further opportunities and some success - with a shot of Endsor gracing the front cover of  S40 Local and another shot being featured in the Derbyshire Times. I also suspect that one or two of the shots might also make it into the LRPS panel!

So planning now underway for the 4th March panel presentation at FOCUS at the NEC in Birmingham followed quickly by the next workshop on the 14th March in Hathersage.
