•You will be able to join us in London on Wednesday July 9th (provisional)
•You're an enthusiastic photographer
•You will preferably be in the market for a new £500 camera, and keen to try out the latest models and provide WDC with feedback.

We will:
•Pay travel expenses
•Provide lunch
•Introduce you to the team behind WDC
•Provide a selection of £500 DSLRs and lenses to play with
•Accompany you on a photo challenge around London
•Publish the best pictures of the day in WDC.

If you're interested please email Darren Crush by Monday 30th June (at darren_crush@ipcmedia.com )
Please include a link to your online portfolio if you have one.

Thanks,

Matt

Yes but you imply that I did so on purpose!

Or did I?




No of course not.

So are you not in the market for a £500 camera or do you just want to play with them and not provide feedback?

Well how about you come along anyway and we can play with your D3? I'll give you a lovely Sony A100 to keep you occupied and you can decide which to keep afterwards, eh?

Hope this went well today, though I suspect London might have been a little damp! I wonder if there are any biscuits left?

Anyway, I look forward to reading about it in a future issue.

Hi guys,

Yep, the weather can be a pain at the best of times, but in true gritty, WDC spirit we, and our intrepid readers, braved the elements and battled through.

Don't forget to look out for the feature in the September issue, and keep an eye out for future invitations to join us - getting involved and enjoying photography is what it's all about.
