We challenge two <strong>Digital</strong> <strong>Camera</strong> readers<br />
to take part in our latest photo assignment<br />
KEW GARDENS<br />
This issue, Ben Brain joins two photographers at the<br />
world-famous Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, for a day<br />
of fantastic floral photography – without the aid of<br />
a tripod or a macro lens…<br />

FOrmerly an engineer<br />
and IT specialist with BT,<br />
Richard is enjoying some<br />
quality photography time<br />
in his early retirement.<br />
His photographic taste is<br />
wide-ranging, although he’s<br />
keen on sports and street<br />
photography, and can often<br />
be found in Belgium and<br />
France shooting cycle road<br />
racing with his D7100 and<br />
70-200mm VR lens.<br />
Richard thought that a<br />
Shootout at Kew Gardens<br />
would be an interesting<br />
opportunity to go outside<br />
of his comfort zone –<br />
particularly as he doesn’t<br />
own a macro lens.<br />
