Richard Young

Double quotation marks Printing has always been a hugely important part of my photography, right from the beginning of my journey as a landscape photographer. When I started to print my work, it quickly turned into the end goal for most of my photography in the form of fine art prints for exhibitions and gallery sales. I feel a digital image never truly becomes a ‘photograph” until it is in a printed form, and nor is it finished a piece of work until it is printed Double quotation marks

Simon Woolf

Double quotation marks I have always believed it is what is six inches behind the camera which counts! It still really important to me, that I have the thrill and anticipation, a spit second after hearing the shutter go off, and then seeing the image on the back of the camera. You know when you have nailed that special shot. Then it is vital the next 50% of ensuring the photo really counts, and that's in the three "P's". Post Production, Printing and Presentation all essential components in gaining the best you can out of that initial click of the shutter! Double quotation marks
