15 Minute Photo Challenge ~ Gatwick Revisited
It’s the return of the 15 minute photo challenge. One camera, one location, and only 15 minutes to find great photos!
This time I get to return to one of my favourite photo locations as I try out Canon’s all new EOS M camera and then follow me into Photoshop CS6 where I’ll show you a quick technique for making stunning black and white images.
For this challenge I borrowed the mirrorless Canon EOS-M. A more in depth review is coming soon but for now I can tell you I won’t be ditching my usual DSLR gear any time soon. Having said that it was great fun to shoot a familiar location with a new camera and sticking to the 18-55mm kit lens made me look much harder to find the photos.

Another brilliant 15 minute challenge, Gavin. I really do love these videos and they’re sorely missed by your audience. I’d love to visit a place like an aviation museam as there’s clearly lots of things to photograph. I love watching your video as they make me think more about compositions and finding great photos out of nothing. I often feel myself saying “What would Gavin do?” 🙂
Thanks Gavin. Inspirational as usual. I was especially interested in the Black and White processing.Food for thought, thank you.
Nice it’s finally here. I was waiting for these 15 mins challenge for ages. Please keep them coming. Thank you Gavin.
Loved the video, although it did make me chuckle that you fixed the white balance then converted to black and white, as I’m already completely colour blind I couldn’t even see the difference before it was converted, let alne after!
But I can’t believe I never knew about the greyscale mixer, targeted adjustment! I do a black and white photography blong and had no idea that was there! Great tip!
Welcome back to the 15 minute challenge!!! As I live in Charlwood, the aviation is a favourite of mine, so thanks, and look forward to seeing yoiu at Crawley Camera Club next year.
Muchas gracias por estos vídeos. Son muy didácticos e ilustrativos. Un gran trabajo, Gavin.
Good to see the 15min challenge back!
