Well, we have successfully hosted our first critique night which was pretty good fun really. In all about half a dozen photographers submitted work. Given that this was the first ever event of it's type for the group I thought that was pretty encouraging. In all we had about twenty people in for the social, and given that I arranged it Hammersmith again this felt like a result.
As I expected the images were all of an excellent standard and for me personally my criticism largely came down to nit picking. Simon kept on shouting that he liked a lot of the work (his) and I think we all got to talk about the various images. Personally I learnt a bit from speaking to the photographers and doing a bit of reverse engineering with them.
I would like to say a massive thanks to Dan, Huy and Emil for taking the time to offer their opinions on the work. I would also like to thank all the photographers that submitted work because without then we would not have had anything to look at.
During the evening I met and fell deeply in love with a Cornish blonde but she hurt me the next day, these things happen. Until next time, Take it easy. I know you will.... (Yeah I nicked that from the Big Lebowski.)
