    I really enjoyed the course. There were 3 of us as 1 person wasn't able to join at the last minute. Sheena explained everything really well and was very patient with all our questions. We had plenty of time to practice what we'd learnt and Sheena sent us some useful documents afterwards. I'm looking forward to my next course

    Very enjoyable session. Sheena had researched some really interesting subjects to photograph around the city that you'd never know existed before the day. As always, plenty of advice and encouragement on hand to get the best from the day and to take forward on future shoots.

    I found the geometric shapes of this building quite fascinating and wanted a clean shot of it. With the monochrome B&W edit, I tried to emphasise the starkness of these angles even more. Shot at ISO 100 - 40mm - f/5.6 - 1/60s. Taken around 11 am during the Architecture Photography Workshop with Sheenah Kershaw.
