Join us in London for another 24-hour shoot Last year, Photography New ’s sister title Advanced Photographer hosted a 24-hour photographic shoot in London, sponsored by Samsung. It was so successful that it’s being held again, and the date for your diary is 20 June, 6pm start, finishing at 6pm the following day. Everyone is welcome whether you want to spend the whole 24 hours shooting or you can only stay a few hours. It’s free, there’s no time limit, you can strike out on your own, buddy up, or come along as a club. Numbers are limited however. We are sorting details now, but the aim is to meet in central London and go from there, and there will be competitions for the best images taken during Photo 24 2014. We’ll have more news on the event in future issues and in Advanced Photographer magazine. Meanwhile, if you or your club are interested in joining us and to help us gauge numbers, pre- register online at http://bit.ly/1i8L7ot.
