I'd like to come, but it will depend on when it happens as I'm hoping to be in camper mode for most of September and October.

So I guess we'll give the Cotswold Water Park a miss then

There's a section in The Digital Printing Handbook by Tim Daly on creating darkroom effects with digital, and it includes a recipe for creating lith printing effects using curves. I believe Tony Worobiec has also brought out a book very recently on digital black and white printing which includes alt...

It's a few years since I was in the area, but is there any potential around the Cotswold Water Park area? Any of the gravel extraction sites that haven't been severely tarted up?

I'd happily come in on a bulk order for the MF holder - I seem to be doing OK with the large format one, but have shelved scanning my 6x4.5 trannies with my V750 because it is so hit and miss

Hi Tom Fidden on the Ross of Mull is good for rocks and sand (great sunsets if you're lucky too!) and there are some great views and a nice river on the A849 through Glen More. On Skye the Trotternish Ridge is an absolutely stunning walk especially around the Quiraing, but photographically try to av...

Steve - I'd happily head up to the Cotswolds for a shoot. Ainsley - I was having a discussion with a couple of friends recently about photographing NT properties, and we came to the conclusion that they have a very biased view of photographers! My male friends have both been stopped and 'discouraged...

I can vouch for the Outer Hebrides and Scottish islands in general - there is much much more than Callanish! Barra and the Uists have hardly been touched by high profile photographers and they are absolutely beautiful in a wild and untouched sort of way. Camping there is great and a there are a coup...

Hi John! Good to have another South Westerner as there seem to be a lot of Northerners on this site .

I live a couple of hours up the road from you near Yeovil and also have a Wista. Never been know to pass a tea shop either! Could be travelling down your way in the next few weeks.

I was on a Derry Brabbs course at Blencathra a few years back too! He was excellent, but doesn't tutor FSC workshops any more. There is one tutor I would avoid, but I won't name names - I'll p.m. you Paul if your dad is interested.

Hi Paul, I can recommend any of the Field Studies Council photography courses. They have centres all over the place, including one at Flatford Mill and one on the North Downs and cover both film and digital photography, and specialise in nature and landscapes. The courses are a good price and I've f...

I bet you wish you hadn't asked!

Hi Tom, I'm probably the last person to give advice amongst this wealth of hardened 'users'. But for what it's worth, I had the same problem when I switched to LF. Firstly I don't know what film you are using, but if you've still got some Velvia 50 I find I need to rate it a 32 for my large format a...

I've just emailed my only 2 photos of the weekend to Charles, so hopefully they will appear on the Yorkshire workshop page within the next couple of days/weeks/months. I was just getting into the swing of things when the tide came in :cry: Still, it was a good weekend despite the weather. Thanks to ...
