They didn't always agree with each other, which in itself was an insight in how images can fare when up against a panel of judges. Rod was very encouraging and they both made some useful suggestions. I deliberately took a very mixed selection of images with me and I think I can go back to my archive now with a better idea of what might pass muster. They did say that the standard of nature images these days is so high that they have to be exceptionally good now.
Hi Rose
I did see you while you were having the review and I was meaning to ask you on the journey home how you got on. Of course that did not happen as you ended up returning on an earlier train. I, too, got the spiel about the high standard of nature photography in respect of the one shot in that genre which I took along. Not that I was too worried as it is not something in which I have much interest in doing beyond the occasional visit to the British Wildlife Centre. Rod did most of the talking for my review and it was certainly illuminating.

Same here. It's not my gear which needs to improve, rather what is happening behind it.
