South West Coast Path launches Motographer of the Year 2013 competition
The South West Coast Path team is encouraging budding mobile phone photographers of all ages to capture a moment in time on the Coast Path as part of its Motographer of the Year 2013 competition, which launches today. It could be a shot of a couple resting a while to admire the view or a child collecting seashells – the only rule is that it is taken on a mobile phone and includes a person out on any stretch of the 630-mile South West Coast Path. Among this year’s judges is the award-winning travel and landscape photographer David Noton, who runs photography workshops on Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, and award leader…

Female Group Naked Professional Photographic Sessions – Next Big Thing! (Apparently)
Well this is interesting, for many reasons, actually… PetaPixel have run a story relating to group female boudoir shots being the newest professional photographic trend. It involves your closest female friends, ones that you may love dearly but not necessarily want to ‘get sexy with’. But is seems that groups, hoardes even, of women want to combine stripping naked with friendly group boudior photographic sessions. I mean, there are lines, aren’t there? And I don’t just mean the wrinkles, love handles and the like, I mean the ‘invisible lines’, boundaries even? It seems that ‘getting sexy’ with your girlfriends in the interests of photography is all the ‘go’ and we’re…

Gray’s Anatomy – Changing My Religion – By Richard Gray
Readers of my last column will know I’ve been thinking about switching to Android. Jokingly in one of my recent iPhone photography classes, I said to people: “I’m thinking of going over to the dark side”. I thought it would get a bit of a laugh, but the faces that greeted me weren’t all smiling. Some seemed concerned for my well-being, as if I might have been taking drugs. On others, jaws dropped wordlessly. Others seemed to be accusing me of betrayal. Judas. Admittedly, there’s a clue in the name of this class that might mean people have a certain prejudice. Even my wife looked at me when she realised…
