Back in October we posted about our support for the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) Red For Heart Photography Competition and after weeks of red photo inspiration and hundreds of entries, we’re now excited to share the winning photos!

The theme for the November/December round of the Warehouse Express staff photo competition was “Light” and once again the entries were split into two categories; Beginner and Advanced. The quality of the images submitted was simply superb and there were several shots that could have won and would have deserved to do so.

In our final Story Behind the Photo installment, gallery owner and photography teacher Tony Pick shares one of his favourite photos that features the colour red.

Here at Warehouse Express we don’t just talk the talk; we also walk the walk.

If you’ve bought (or been bought) or are buying a digital SLR camera you may have already discovered that the camera itself is just one of the many things you need to make the most of it. While some are just nice to have, others are absolute essentials. In this guide we will look at both kinds; those accessories that you should not consider buying a camera without and those which you may want to put on a “wish-list” for another day.

I wasn’t a fan of the original 24-120 VR. Build quality was OK but nothing amazing and the optics left a lot to be desired with a sharp centre that rapidly softened up. So when this new 24-120mm f4 version was announced I was curious to see if they had brought the lens up to scratch. After all, it’s a fantastic focal length for those that need or want a little more reach than the 24-70.

In this week’s Story Behind the Photo feature, Going Digital founder Jan Slack shares her fanciful photo that features the colour red. Hopefully it inspires you to check out the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) Red for Heart photography competition – all you need to do is snap a photo that incorporates the colour red too!

But what options do flip out screens offer? Are they just a gimmick, or do they really give more creative freedom? I decided to go to extreme lows and highs with my Canon G11 to see what difference this variable-angle screen could make.
