    Great lesson with Emanuel! He gave us effective, meaningful instruction with plenty of opportunity to practice along the way. He was also extremely kind, not only to us, but to everyone we crossed paths with while taking pictures in the park. Great way to spend an afternoon!

    I am a beginner and Emmanuel helped me understand the relationship between shutter speed, aperature and ISO. We practiced taking photos and adjusting settings manually. Emmanuel is very knowledgeable and teaches concepts so they are easy to understand.

    Title or Location: Watonga Rocks, Port Macquarie
    A beautiful rainbow just on sunrise at Watonga Rocks, at Lighthouse Beach in Port Macquarie, Australia. The rainbow persisted for over an hour, allowing time to wade out into the surf to get the rainbow positioned just right for a photograph. I had to watch for breaking waves behind me while taking photographs to avoid bring dunked and I had to tun for it several times. Happily it all worked out and I captured a great images.

    Title or Location: Portsmouth Dockyard
    The photo was taken at Emsworth, a very picturesque harbour on the south coast of England. The sea was incredibly calm making it like a mirror, and the morning light was soft and warm in colour. I was stood on the harbour wall and framed the shot to include the sunken boat to give it scale and perspective.

    There are a few crows living around my place. Those two became quite tame and stayed in my garden. They always got a few tidbits and as a thank you they gave me little gifts. So I really enjoyed their company.
