Beginner to Winner

21st May 2017 Events, recent work 0 Comments

The promoters of the Beginner to Winner  event in Cheltenham had been let down last minute by their photographer and I got asked if I could step in at a few hours notice.  I didn’t know exactly what to expect and just set off with a variety of kit to try and cover most eventualities.  The event was held in the Cheltenham Town Hall.  A lovely big open room used for all variety of occasions.  The lighting was horrific, really dark and only lit from one side.  On top of that the promoters didn’t want flash to be used.  Without a high end modern camera I would have been down and out.  Shooting at 8000ISO keep the shutter speed reasonable and just about produced some useable images.
