THE APPRENTICE

NAME: Steven McGrady

CAMERA: Nikon D750

Steven started off with Nikon F3 and F5 film cameras back in the day, but his interest was rekindled with the advent of digital when he bought a D70S.

A D300 followed, then a D800, he’s since ‘downgraded’ to a D750, which he finds more portable – and the smaller file sizes more manageable. He works as a tax lawyer in the City of London and has advised on many of the buildings that form capital’s famous skyline, and was keen to include them in his cityscapes.

The PRO

NAME: Jordan Banks

CAMERA: Nikon D850

Jordan’s career as a photographer began around 20 years ago when he took a gap year to go travelling. Armed with his dad’s old Nikon FE and a 50mm lens, he entered the Travel Photographer of the Year competition – and won a Highly Commended award! Magazine assignments followed and he began selling images through specialist stock libraries. He now runs travel photography tours and workshops through the UK and wider world.

Defining Fine Art
What makes a fine art print? What’s your interpretation? I’m not sure that anybody has come up with the definitive definition, but a fine art print to me starts off with an image that somebody wants to put up on their wall as a piece of art. For exam
