    I loved it. I learnt a lot. Jordan is very knowledgeable and helpful. He spent some time speaking with the group and also had one-on-one time with everyone to help out with specific user errors. I still struggle with using my manual settings, so it was great to get help with this. He also gave some important tips regarding subjects and getting a more unique shot. I am looking forward to future meetups!!

    In the quiet stillness of the early morning, I captured this photo at Lake Albert in Wagga Wagga, a place renowned for its breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. The scene was serene, with a gentle hush enveloping the air. The sunrise painted the sky in stunning hues, its reflection shimmering on the tranquil waters and casting a golden glow that seemed to illuminate the world

    I enjoy macro photography highlighting parts of everyday object wee usually overlook. In this picture, I noted the opening of the white rose petals to reveal the reds and oranges of the stamens and pistil against a golden glow formed from the light diffusing through the scene, like the opening of a painted paper fan.
