Thought I would let everyone know about this Aussie photography show that is in its second week now, this week is landscape. They take 3 amateurs, give them the same assignment and the same equipment and the limited help of an expert. Their completed work is then judged each week.
First week was portraits and a Hassleblad camera.

This is the link to week 2, the show only goes for about 25 minutes, hopefully interested US members will be able to view it, if interested.
I would have loved to go on it.
