I just wanted to say what a wonderful day I had.. After having read two beginner books about aperture, iso and shutter speed I was still in such a muddle about it all but the penny dropped today and I feel really excited to start taking photos outside of auto mode! ...explained everything so logically and the practical exercises we did were spot on. I really liked his style, which was relaxed but also his passion for the craft is apparent and clearly the guy knows his stuff. His presentation was excellent with just enough written information on the slides without it being laborious. Thanks for organising such a great course.
Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the course yesterday.
I started the day with no idea how to work a camera and by the end of the day was able to start composing reasonably decent shots.
Thought Steve was a great teacher, very relaxed and was able to explain his points really clearly.
