Cover by Greg Daly LMPA, winner of the 2010 Yervant Wedding Award. Taken at the Corfu ‘Seven Masters’ workshop which was the prize for this – the pose was directed by Graham Monro during his tuition. Greg added his own angle, and in post- processing using a vignette with increased colour saturation as well as density and blur. This created an effect similar to coloured vaseline on a filter.
