Workshop Overview.
This is the perfect Photography Workshop to really get to grips with your Landscape and Water Photography. Aimed at intermediate level Photographers, learn how to perfect your composition, get to grips with shutter speeds and lens choice. You may be using semi-manual settings ect (Aperture Priority mode) OR have a basic understanding of how to use your Camera and change settings OR be using full manual mode, and would like to not only perfect your settings, but to learn and master everything Landscape Photography has to offer!
Discover the wonderful and hidden beauty of South Lakeland and the historic village of Grasmere. We will spend some time exploring the area, concentrating on the stunning views, lake and surrounding woods. The Workshop Starts in the area known as White Moss. A simply beautiful Woods! Where you will spend time learning how to properly compose Landscape Photography, using trees to frame your subject matter, as well as incorporating texture and detail into your finished images. We will then pause for a well earned lunch at the in Grasmere its self.

This is the perfect location to understand how water can relate to land in terms of composition and negative space. The rocks at Penny Rock wood, make for an interesting subject matter, get creative with the mood and learn techniques, Pro Photographers use.
