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…....
New Gallery Opens
5th October 2009
A new Gallery has been added to showcase Large Format Workshop participants’ pictures. These pictures were made by participants who had no previous experience of Large Format photography. And they were made in dificult conditions where many ‘tradtional’ photographers would not have attempted photography. Bright, high contrast light, rain, wind and the dimmest light - and we’re not talking IQ here - were all successfully handled. Take a look at the tight composition of ‘Church Cottage Turville’ and the moody stillness of ‘St Mary’s’; images to be proud of.
