Thanks for another brilliant workshop! Once again it was full on, but building on from last time meant it wasn’t quite so head-spinning as the first one when everything was new. The challenges you set were great for making me think about my shots a bit more and gave me a bit of a jolt out of doing things the same way all the time. The new processing tips have already been put to use – I think I’ll be revisiting a few old shots I haven’t been happy with to try again now that I have some new approaches to the problem areas.  The locations were all amazing. Lake Eyre was spectacular and I don’t think I’ll ever forget standing out on it at 5.30am seeing all those stars in such a clear sky. And the aurora! My first aurora shots taken from Marree – wow! All topped off with the best company and a whole lot of laughter, I feel like I’ve known the others forever. Thanks also to Lyall for his hospitality and fabulous food, staying at the Roadhouse is more like staying with friends than staying at a business and it was good to catch up with him again. I’m already looking forward to returning for another go!
