The Light Collective First Photography Workshop

In February this year, three of the five members of The Light Collective (Luke Austin, Adam Williams and myself) went on an adventure above the arctic circle to capture images of Iceland and Lofoten (Norway) with 14 intrepid participants.

We are very happy as these were the first photography workshops organised by The Light Collective and they both were a great success. We had terrific weather, saw a few amazing auroras, and captured some great images.

Last Friday Paul Hoelen Adam Williams and I had an awesome night at the magnificent Head On Photo Festival Event. Great images and very well set up. This year I was again lucky to get a place within 20 talented finalists. Congrats to my friend Paul Hoelen of The Light Collective to win the second place of this prestigious competition. He is also featuring an exhibition in Sydney as part of the Head On festival titled ‘Altered lands’ with another couple of aerial photography icons in Australia: Scott McCook and Sheldon Pettit. If you are in Sydney go and enjoy this exhibition with great imagery. Customs House, Circular Quay. Spread the word. I am also participating with an image in the Add On exhibition for the first time. Exciting week!

Amateur and professional photographers enter photography competitions for different reasons. Some look for recognition in the most important contests, some are looking to earn a bit of cashand others simply enter to learn and to have some fun! Most of us are actually after all of those.

One of the most important things that has helped me to create fine art images has been to enter photography competitions.
