NOMINATE YOUR FAVOURITE CAMERA SHOP
We want to know where you’ve had a great shopping experience when picking up an Olympus camera. Email us at press.office@olympus.co.uk with the subject “My favourite camera shop”. We’ll feature your nominations in future issues!
WHAT TO SHOOT IN SEPTEMBER
RICH COLOURS OF AUTUMN LEAVES
Keep tabs on the trees in your local park or arboretum for their
photographic potential. Maple trees and Virginia creeper will turn scarlet
red in the coming weeks. If you keep watch, as soon as the right weather appears, you can hot-foot it over and capture away!
BACK TO SCHOOL
If you’ve got your own children or know little people heading back to
school, why not offer to take some portraits of them in their uniforms? Look for
even light, get down to their eye level, focus on their eyes and use a wide aperture to blur out the background.
Show off your favourite pictures – you can get a free photo book when you buy any Olympus camera over £150 before September 15th 2012.
