Dear David,
Just received and watched your DVD, and I really enjoyed it. I found some parts particularly informative, and was pleased to see how the video camera represented what you normally see compared to the use of ND grad filters in the final images (I’ve had some on order for about 3 months now, and can’t wait to receive them)!!
Really informative and also very inspirational.
Best regards,
Ash

Hi David - just to let you know I received the DVD a couple of days ago and have been savouring it and enjoying it for the last 2 evenings. Its truly wonderful, very informative and I hope to put a lot of your advice into practice. I'm a wedding photographer by trade, though landscapes are my passion so its a pleasure to see such a great DVD. I'll definitely be buying the book too.
Many thanks again for a superb product,
Kind regards

Hi David,
I bought your DVD at Focus at the NEC on Tuesday blew me away! I have only been taking photographs for just over a year, but have had quite a bit of success. I put the DVD on when I got back from the exhibition just to have a quick look, and ended up watching it all! I had been up since 5am to get to the show, and your DVD kept me up until the early hours of the next morning!
Very informative and a real inspiration; I will be recommending this one to everyone!
Thanks again
Paul

Hi David
Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your DVD. It arrived this morning and I have spent the evening totally engrossed in it. Will no doubt watch it several more times too before I am done!
I'm sure it must have taken many hours of filming to produce those 90 minutes but they were well worth it. Absolutely fascinating to see how you work. It's got me wanting to go out and take some pics but the conditions are really not great here at the moment.
Anyway I just thought you might like to hear some positive feedback seeing as it's the first week but I am sure there will be plenty to come. Like I said, absolutely fascinating.
Still read all your stuff and am continually totally inspired by your work.
All the best
Sandy

Hi David
Just a short mail to say thank you for deciding to put together the Chasing The Light DVD, I've been looking forward to watching this DVD since it was first mentioned it on your website. The way you explain and present this DVD is brilliant, and I think well worth the price. Fingers crossed that my girlfriend will have noticed my subtle hint's and buy your book to accompany the DVD for my birthday in April.
Many thanks again, and your picture's are amazing and love your Practical Photography column
Regards
Wayne Fowler
