Youth Centre Opening

On Saturday, 20th November I attended my second event as a photographer. This time it was for the opening of the new youth centre in Widnes. The centre is the start of many new developments for youth within Halton. The centre's opening was brilliant, the council spared no expense and went all out on the hollywood theme for the opening. They had entertaining from singing to dancing as well as a magician. Food was offered and there was a special appearance from Titan the Robot, which personally was the highlight of the day. The centre is state of the art and free to all users, as well as being opening 7 days a week. Overall, I really enjoyed the day and it was a great confidence booster for me, as this was only days after my first attempt at being a event photographer this gave me the chance to work on ideas and gain more experience in this area. The experience I gained was excellent as this was an all day event, I was able to wonder round at my own leisure and photograph whatever I wished with time to spare... so for that reason I found this event to be easier but no less useful. As this was in the middle of the day and the building had windows, the lighting was quite good and was easier to capture shots with good exposure without increasing my ISO, as I did this during the speaking contest and alot of my images had noise on them although this didnt really happen during this event, which was good for me. Below are a selection of images I took at the event...
