I have a small bookcase full of photographic magazines and books, as I am sure many of you do, but still like to look at the older copies of such mags when the opportunity presents itself. I hope the recent tradition of sharing unwanted photographic mags and books through the club continues.
Thanks to Ron Heptinstall (I think), I had the opportunity of reading some older copies of Layers magazine from March/April 2006.
I read with interest an article entitled "Rolling with the Changes" - four photographers share their insights for going digital. Since I was never into film photography, I am always interested in the discussion about "film versus digital". An interesting read if you can get hold of it.

Vincent Versace's contribution "Picture to Print" stuck in my mind. (equally relevant to film or digital capture):"Midday is not for lunch - it's for scouting locations. Morning and early evening are not for breakfast or dinner - they're for shooting. That's when the light is best.
It's not the subject that you're photographing - it's the light that's falling on the subject. That's what's important."
Amen to that.
"Rains Coming" - Sedan, South Australia
"Beyond the Bluff" - Encounter Bay, South Australia
"Lake Sunset" - Lake Bonney, South Australia
Cheers and happy snapping
