Other highlights in June’s Digital Camera
And we’ve got plenty of potential subjects to photograph – just head straight over to Photo Active and Stay at Home for another set of projects to immerse yourself in.
Other visual treats await in Hotshots, with our highlights from the Royal Horticultural Society’s 2021 photo contest, and Pro in Focus, where we catch up with leading photojournalist Brent Stirton.
