Customer Review of our Beginner Photography Workshops

Last year when we started the beginner photography workshops, a lovely friendly woman called Emm came on the composition workshop. She later posted a blog about the workshop to all her friends and family around the world. Now, I find the time to share with the readers here that post.

Not only does Emm give a nice summary of the area where we hold our workshops, but you can also see the photos that she took and the commentary on what she learnt by attending the workshop. She’s a great writer including wit, history and links to places of interest.

London Photos: Now & Then

Posted By: Natalie  //  Category: Photographers, Photography Exhibitions, Reviews

Just found these London before and after photos on the BBC website.

Truly amazing, there are nearly 140 years between the photos of how London was then (shot by Henry Dixon - 1870s) and how our capital looks now (shot this year by Rob Ainsley).

Mostly photos of the city, we are privy to see the changes that have happened with buildings that either were bombed or spaces that would change as society changed.

View the photos on the BBC website.

Look closely, you can see extensions, renovations, or in the case of a couple, our food and drinking needs have wiped away the whole building.

An excellent slideshow of 12 photos courtesy of the British Library.

And a great warm up for the Points of View exhibition being hosted by the British Library that The Photo School is going to this Sunday.
