Photowalk
On Saturday I particpated in my first Photowalk in Newcastle with the Newcastle Photowalk Group - and I really enjoyed it, some of started by meeting up in the Settle Down Cafe and then made our way towards the Quayside, but stopped of at a few places including St Nicholas’ Catherdral and the Black Gate to take some photos there, but walking along the quayside produced the best pictures I took, including the one at the top of this article which was my favourite overall.
It was a great experience getting to know people and take pictures even if it is a compact camera like the one I was using, you don’t need expensive kit to take a nice picture but it does help, I’d taken pictures at things before but had forgotton how much I’d enjoyed doing it and was glad of the chance to do it again and was a great way to spend a few hours even if it was a little cold it was well worth braving the cold for good conversation, photography and more.
I look forward to the next event, the previous one was just a social event but was a great way to meet some of the people but is a great group to be with and everyone brings something different - not just cameras but their other interests so it’s not just all about cameras anyone can join in - and that’s a good indication of a great group and I wouldn’t have got the picture I did without it, which is now my Facebook Timeline Cover picture.
