    The Sin Capture presenter, her name Cindy?? was very patient with all the participants and made sure she spent one on one time with each person. She is very knowledgeable and explained everything in simple terms. Would recommend.

    Barry Ratcliff
    I became interested in photography back in the film days. Became serious about photography 20 odd years ago. I bought my first DSLR then. A canon 20D with an 18 - 55mm lens. Also had a 200 - 500mm because I was photographing working dogs and wildlife. I have been doing that ever since. My interest has widened in the last couple of years. I now do some still life, landscape and pet portraits.

    Title or Location: Tamar Wetlands, Launceston, Tasmania
    I went to the wetlands early to photograph water birds but became so fascinated by the ice formations that I focused on them. I spent so much time in photographing the frost that I completely missed the water birds that morning.

    Title or Location: Sandy Hook at Branyan
    I was looking to shoot some rural scenes when I stumbled on this old beauty in Branyan near Sandy Hook. It had all of the elements that I was looking for and presented itself for that perfect shot. the lighting was perfect, the tonal range was perfect, all in all, just a perfect shot. I uploaded all of the shot that I had taken that afternoon to the cloud, some days later when reviewing the images I managed to lose all of the images except for this one.Nikon D800, 28mm focal length, f22 @ 1

    Title or Location: This Still Life Photograph of "Grapes, Strawberry's and Wine" was taken in my bedroom in Orange County California.
    This image is a Still Life Composition of "Berries, Wine and Grapes" that I created on a rainy day in my bedroom. I used no fancy Studio Lighting at all. My only light source was a hand-held flashlight that I kept moving rapidly. It was an experiment in Light Painting when I couldn't go outside to shoot.
