Tips from our A-Graders

Ron Sharples
Learn your camera; Take your time and do not hurry; Don’t let others feel you need to hasten just because they are finished; Remember, if you miss the photo there is another one around the corner; Look around and move with the light and the subject; Don’t take hundreds of photos, just take your best.
