The following morning we will be up early to head for a location to hopefully get a sunrise (weather dependant). The exact location will be decided nearer the time. A one point we will be visiting the wreck of the Admiral Von Trump at low tide (see picture). The exact agenda will be flexible depending on weather and tide times but we will cover seascapes, landscapes, detail pictures, composition, slow shutter speeds and lots more, the workshop will finish around 3pm on Monday. I will be staying at Penny Hedge, Marston Inns, Whitby, which is reasonably priced and has car parking.

BOLTON ABBEY - Autumn will be in full swing which will make for some stunning photos around the Bolton Abbey estate. You'll learn all about composition, exposure and using graduated filters to create more dramatic landscape photography. Just outside Skipton, the landscape, Abbey and the famous stepping stones will give us lots of opportunities to create something really special. Filters are provided for you to use on the day. A tripod is essential and we have some available to borrow, please make a note on the booking form. To prepare you for the day we hold a Zoom Presentation a few days before (usually the Wednesday around 6.30pm). The Zoom session is recorded for those who can't make it and for anyone who wants a refresher before we meet. We will then meet up at Bolton Abbey for the practical part of the workshop which will be about 3 and a half hours starting at 9.30am. Finally, everyone will have the option of sending me some of their pictures from the day and having a personal photo review over Zoom. Read More
