Overview Goodbye to Joe Cornish Gallery
On the 22nd June I’ll be saying goodbye to the gallery in Northallerton. For 6-months, I have really enjoyed being surrounded by outstanding landscape photography, working on calendar and greetings cards production; two major trade shows and having the opportunity to work alongside Joe in his digital studio. One thing I won’t miss, the weekly 3-4 hour drive to and from my base in the Chilterns to Northallerton. If you love landscape photography, put the Joe Cornish Gallery on your list of ‘100 Things to Do Before You Die’; and do it now…......you never know!
My April workshop was a great success. We started at dawn and finished at sunset with time off for good behaviour at mid-day! Workshop participants made some great photographs - almost all digital - and had a thoroughly enjoyable day. Watch out for these pictures going into the Gallery.
Large Format Workshops will feature the MPP MkVI Micro-Technical camera mentioned last month; despite it being a 1950’s vintage, the only maintenance needed was a shutter service. They don’t make them like that anymore - unless they are an Ebony SU or SW. Enjoy your photography…....

1st May 2008
It’s Bluebell season and I will be out there at dawn & dusk. Asheridge is high on my list - and on the list of hundreds of other photographers too - as well as more local beech woods. And, one of the 3 commissions which resulted from my Lambent Light exhibition ‘happens’ this month. A client has aked me to create some pictures of her rather wonderful garden. My plan is to start the shoot at around 5.30am so I guess that the early bird will be lucky to get the worm - I claim it! A second commission - pictures of Frinton-on-Sea - is also planned for May / June. Having watched a recent TV programme on Frinton, I will be taking extra care to ensure that I have an escape plan.
