We’ve been incredibly impressed by the creativity and quality of our participant’s photography, so much so we asked a few of them if they would be willing to share their new smartphone skills. Here are their stunning snaps!
Laurayne – Oxford City safari
“I did the Oxford urban Safari with Gail. It was a very good tour round Oxford looking at ways to get more interesting photos. I picked up lots of hints and tips.
Gail is very personable and had time for everyone in the group. A really enjoyable experience.
There was time at the end of the tour to look at editing or photos using the Snapseed app.
I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in improving their use of a smartphone camera, it is suitable for all abilities.”
Kirsten from ReDiscover Active Breaks - Brocket Hall safari, Hertfordshire
“I really enjoyed the smartphone photo safari with the lovely Jeanne.
The stunning location was perfect to try out all the new, simple tricks she taught us as we went.
My newfound skills will be massively helpful when taking stand-out photos during my fitness retreats and adventure breaks, so people really get a feel of what to expect. Thank you so much!”
Elaine – 1 to 1 safari Port Isaac, Cornwall
“I had minimal knowledge about my phone’s abilities, so the safari was to develop my knowledge, which it did.
The experience was very relaxing and at my pace and Julie explored what was appealing to me about my chosen environment and built on that.
From this session, rather than using my phone as a ‘back up’, I tend to set myself some particular phone outings using my increased skills.”
Dawn – Oxford City safari
“I really enjoyed the entire experience. Gail was very innovative in her choice of subjects to photograph and the editing session at the end was really useful.
She inspired me to look for photography opportunities in a different way, even indoors as you will see from my kitchen at sunset photo.
I also followed Gail’s recommendation to buy a selfie stick, which I have been practicing with at home. It will definitely help with puddle/water photos as my mobility is restricted at the moment.
Since the session I am a lot more confident to use my smartphone for photography, especially at times when taking my big camera would be cumbersome.
Thank you once again, and especially for being so patient!”
