People...

A rather modest number of images and turnout for the clubs latest presentation.

Hardly suprising I suppose, what with the holiday season finally here, workshops popping up every day, recently launched satellites taking up our time and the list goes on.


In spite of this there was still a lot of discusion and a few surprises... go and check out a certain image from Alberto and see if you can work out what he has done... then check here and here to see if you guessed right.

I have pulled rank on this blog entry and included the picture of my son... well basically because I'm a proud Dad..

...and you'll also see Mar's wonderfully natural street portrait...

So then... time for a well earned rest for everyone and the 'Holidays 2009' theme will be back in September, where we get to show off all the fantastic things we are about to do over the holiday period...

But.... (there's always a but isn't there)... before you all disappear.. please do leave you comments and thumbs up...

Take care...

Fauna & Flora in Europe...

Came across this website Wild Wonders of Europe, where you can see some truly stunning nature images from all over Europe...

Spain is quite well represented as well... might come in handy for the 'Animal Kingdom' later on this year ??

Hasselblad Masters...

Always known for their excellence in the image making business, the top 100 finalists in the Hasselblad 2009 Masters Awards Competition have now been selected.

and...............

............this year the voting to determine the final 10 has been opened to the public....!

This months featured photographer...

This months featured photographer is micmojo, aka Jan Scholz. Born in Hamburg, Germany he now lives and works in Maastricht, Holland.

He started portrait and fashion photography in April 2006 as a spare time activity, as a creative counterweight to his job, which he still continues to do up to this day. He uses a wide variety of film camera's of different formats along with digital...

His imagery is beautifully crafted and considering he does this in his spare time, the level of excellence he has reached is extraordinary...

Inspiration for our next theme 'People' maybe...?
