    Sky Arts Master of Photography TV prog

    1. Just thought that adding a real life deadline, working in the industry would add another dimension to it. 2.

    Sky Arts Master of Photography TV prog

    Overall I enjoyed the series, for a first season it did a good job. Refreshing to watch a program aimed at photography. I feel it a few tweaks could improve it: 1. Introduce a "masterchef" style challenge in a real life situation, such as covering an event using reportage and proving and...
