Yor kshire Woodland in Autumn By Trevor Burton and Janice Burton LRPS

You know the feeling. You take the card out of the camera and pop it into the computer. Excitement rises, tempered by history. So often your hard work has been wasted; or at best compromised. There’s a distraction on one of the edges. Fancy not noticing the tree crossing the horizon. Why didn’t you move another metre to the left or right? And worst of all; the main interest is not quite pin sharp. We’ve tried all sorts of ways to improve. We’ve been reading magazines for years. We’ve been members of a photographic society for 15 years and had a lot of help from other members. We have a bookcase heaving with books on photographic technique and work by the famous. You Tube is regularly watched. We’ve had feedback from a lot of judges. None of which seemed to stay permanently in the memory. We first went on a workshop organised by the Landscape Group of the RPS in 2019 and have now attended 3 workshops; each with Mark Banks.
