Your chance to enter the UK’s most prestigious competition for amateur photographers
Round four Landscapes
There are few greater pleasures than being out in the landscape with a camera. Setting up a composition and waiting – hoping – for the light to come good can be an almost meditative experience. More than almost any other category, landscape is about light and its transformative effect – it can lift an ordinary scene to something spectacular. Be prepared to return to a location several times in order to capture it at its best, but above all, simply enjoy being there.
Your guest judge
Your guest judge for Round Four, Landscapes, is Lizzie Shepherd, a full-time professional photographer based in North Yorkshire, specialising in landscape, nature and travel photography. She runs small group photography workshops, and writes and speaks about photography for a number of organisations.
