This weekend is the annual Berkshire Show, at the Newbury Showground, not too far from where I live. The Show is mainly agricultural, but there’s a wide range of other things to see and do… so much so that I spent seven-and-a-half hours walking around!
As you’ll see from the photos, the weather was pretty dull which doesn’t make for bright photos. But I did try a technique that Damian McGillicuddy had suggested on the previous day at an Olympus event I’d attended (blog post on that coming soon!). Damien suggested that, for some shots, using a slow shutter speed would catch a bit of movement to help tell the story of the photo. I tried this in a few photos below.
