PHOTO WALKS - A GENTLE STROLL THROUGH THE LANDSCAPEPhoto Walks - relaxed photography courses

Light & Composition in Photography

On our Photo Walks, we will help you to improve your photography, concentrating on seasonal highlights in the landscape around us. 

What Makes a Good Photograph

You will learn how to take a variety of photographs, from landscapes to close-ups,  how to compose a good photograph, and make the best use of light for professional-looking shots.

Everyone is welcome, newcomer* and more experienced photographer alike (digital or film), and if you have already attended any of our other workshops, you are sure to enjoy the opportunity to use your new skills to photograph a wider range of subjects.

We will be walking at a gentle pace, stopping off regularly to photograph whatever looks good on the day.

Although we will be out and about for most of the session, we will meet at a classroom for tea and coffee (with toilet facilities) and return at the halfway stage for a lunch break.

Relaxed Photography Courses 

We aim to have small groups, so you will benefit from personal advice and tuition throughout the day.
