Photographing Nature Workshop Part 2

Photographing Nature Workshop Part 2

This event is cancelled. We hope to reschedule for later in the year and will reopen bookings shortly.

Our Photographing Nature Workshops are in two parts and are aimed at the beginner to intermediate photographer.
It is not necessary to attend both workshops - each covers different aspects of creative photography.

The content of this second session builds on the technical elements of creative photography presented in the first session, which included aperture, shutter speed and film speed (ISO).

The second session presents guidelines and softer concepts used in creative photography, including:

Rule of Thirds
Rule of Odds
