More Satisfied Customers

The early morning light of the 13th March was just great (wished I'd got up and out earlier) and bode well for the workshop later on. Having finally left the house - a few hours after the golden dawn - I was overlooking a stunning Derbyshire scene enhanced even further with the faintest flickers of overnight snow.

A few shots later and I was inside the wonderful Endsor Tea Rooms enjoying a coffee and freshly baked scones, whilst trying to explain the relationships between ISO, Aperture and Shutter speed - hopefully successfully. Whilst the cloud covered the sky as we emerged ready to capture new and exciting images, it did decide to clear later allowing us to get some fine images of Chatsworth park, some men cutting up some large tree trunks and a large military helicopter dropping in and flying off for good measure. Plenty of subject matter. Talking of which what is it about young ladies clad in tight fitting lycra (or was it leather) that attracts a crowd of photographers?

I am of course talking about Focus on Imaging at the NEC and the young lady in question was quite happy for the visitors to snap away whilst the resident Professional played with various lighting set ups. I'm afraid I only got a snap as I couldn't get anywhere near.....Of course there was much more to entertain and inform with Nikon's stand being constantly overwhelmed as the delegates were shown demonstrations of the latest offerings.

We can thoroughly recommend Focus, just take lots of cash and a comfy pair of shoes!
