What a great weekend...
Andrew Stringer, local Burnham photographer, led a fantastic weekend workshop of creativity and discovery.
The group gathered at 10.30 on Saturday morning and after a short, yet informative discussion around photography and some practical tips on taking black & white photos, we headed off to the allotments
to get snapping.
The weather was perfect, not only for taking pictures, but also to stop, chat and enjoy the sunshine with many allotment gardeners, as we went round. Everyone we spoke to were really interested in what we were doing and the progress of project.
The afternoon and Sunday were spent developing the negatives and contact sheets. Then came the difficult bit - choosing two negatives to develop into pictures. Most people seemed to be able to decide on their absolute favourite but struggled to choose a second. We all chipped in and helped each other decide.
