Last weekend saw the opportunity for me to cash in a Groupon voucher which I had bought way back in, erm, January. Yes, it had expired, but the kind people at Academy Class put on an extra date for us and so we went along to the Pentagon Centre, Glasgow to become digital photography ‘masters’. Well, [...]
