Student Gallery - John Herbert, Cheryl Mount and Vanessa Fraser
Here are the latest images to be included in The Gallery.
Cheryl Mount, Aldershot, Hampshire, UK
Rarely we see a landscape image in this gallery. There is no shortage taken for our projects and we even have a Landscape Photography Course devoted to the subject. However the subject is a difficult one, far more than one would think to take an eye-catching landscape. However Cheryl has done just that with this image.
The late evening sun is just low enough in the sky to create some nice colours. The sunlight has also caught some nice detail on the beach and it is the way the light plays on this landscape that makes it special. Despite a very difficult lighting situation to expose for acceptably, Cheryl has done a perfect job.
Cheryl is currently taking our Basic Photography Course and she submitted this image as part of her Project 2 submission. Well done Cheryl

Vanessa Fraser, Borden, Ontario, Canada
Our Glamour Photography Course deals with all that is involved with the subject including lighting, props, make-up etc. Therefore one can imagine how much there is to get right with a glamour image. However this image selected for the Student Gallery is part of Vanessa’s first project. So she shows great promise.
What makes this image so good is really the mood that Vanessa has captured. The lighting is placed perfectly giving plenty of dark tones in the image yet perfectly exposed throughout.
John Herbert, Lowman, New York, USA
There are various ways of depicting action in an image and John’s image freezes this action in a perfect moment in time. The subjects of this image see plenty of action but are obviously taking time out to play volleyball. The action is captured in this image perfectly as the players are captureed in mid air. The rest of the image is very well composed with the ball in the perfect location and even others in the scene facing the action.
John submitted this image as part of his first project for our Freelance Photography Course.
