"I really enjoyed Part 2, perhaps being more familiar with the format. In part 1, I found the practice session difficult with so many new concepts to think about, whereas in part 2, I was clearer about each exercise as you brought us back together to discuss between each exercise. I was impressed by your group management skills, familiarity and ability to switch between different camera systems to meet individual needs, the pre-course information and hand-outs, which are invaluable references.

Would love to do one of your photo-walks in due course, but feel that I need to assimilate what I've learnt so far."

"Hi Richard 
Sorry for the late reply. Everything was great; you were very good at explaining and paying attention to all of us.
Now just need to practice, as I have been too busy to use my camera.

I have liked the Facebook page. Will leave a review as soon as I can. Planning to do another session but not sure when.
Thank you."

"Hi Richard,

Thank you for the email. I had a great day yesterday. Not only was Marc able to give photography tips but also was very knowledgeable about the deer, which was an expected bonus. I've done many GD courses and events over the years, so I knew what to expect, and always recommend you to people who are looking to get more out of their cameras."

"Hi Richard,

Likewise, delighted to finally meet you and thank you for what I can only describe as a thoroughly enjoyable and highly informative tour. Who knew you could do so many things with your smartphone?  I shall now be thinking more carefully about what photos I take and how I compose them. Very much looking forward to that!

As for the tour itself, I appreciated all your efforts to explain clearly what the various iPhone settings did and in addition how a number of apps could be used to enhance the photos taken. I think anyone with even a partial interest in taking photos on their smartphone would find the tour a lot of fun.


Many thanks again and I shall be sure to recommend your expertly delivered tours to others I know.  Best Regards,

"Hi Richard,I had the best time! Sara (Melhuish) is just so lovely!  I visit London often because I love it but saw it through a totally different perspective and saw people and places I would wonder straight past ordinarily totally oblivious! I will make sure I do that.ThanksAmanda "
