Description:
A fantastic opportunity to explore of beautiful and diverse part of Wales. We will be staying just across the water in Anglesey but will have the mountain of Eryri (Snowdonia) on our doorstep. During the workshop we will spend time exploring the Anglesey coast as well as the mountains and lakes of Eryri National park.
Locations will include:
Penmon Point, Llanddwyn Island, St Cwyfan's Church, Southstack Lighthouse, Llyn Padarn, Dinorwic quarry, Llyn Ogwen and views of Tryfan, Rhaeadr Ogwen waterfalls, Llyn Idwal, Llynnau Mymbyr, and Llyn y Dywarchen
These locations are a guide only and are subject to change depending upon the conditions.
The photography side of the workshop will be accompanied by some time with the computer looking at post processing using Lightroom and Photoshop. We will cover workflow and how to get the best from your images as well as looking at some more advanced techniques including panoramas, bracketing and focus stacking. I am keen to promote a relaxed and informal atmosphere on my workshops and there will be plenty of time for group discussion and image review.
The format of each day will vary depending on the weather and locations but we aim to take sunrise (7.20am) and sunset (18.45pm). Dinner in the evening will be informal home cooking in the accommodation (included) or a meal out in a local establishment (not included).
Why choose a workshop with me?
I have visited North Wales numerous times and love its wilderness and diversity. The coast and mountains are in close proximity yet they offer completely different photographic opportunities. During this workshop we will explore some of the better know locations as well as some hidden gems.
This workshop is based in a large shared house which I feel is an ideal way to explore this part of North Wales. Breakfast can be as early or as late as we need it to be and we have more flexibility than we would have in a hotel. The reception areas provide a comfortable environment for relaxed evenings of image sharing and post processing as well as complete relaxation.
This workshop will be a small group of 4 and the whole session will be run on a relaxed basis with the emphasis on fun and great photography. At the heart of all my workshops is the joy that being out in the natural world brings.
I run my workshops with my partner Simon, who is an amateur photographer, sound recordist and film maker. He is on hand to make sure everything runs smoothly but he is also really good an offering an alternative point of view and is always happy to help with photography advice.
Workshop duration
We will meet at the accommodation in the afternoon of Sunday 3rd October and the workshop will finish after breakfast on Friday 8th October.
Suitability
Photographically this workshop is suitable for all no matter what level you are at or what camera you use.
The aim is to get to know a beautiful location with a group of like minded individuals. The workshop is limited to a maximum of 4 participants with two tutors allowing plenty of individual attention for all. We will cover a range of photographic techniques and will be taking in some diverse locations giving a stimulating few days whatever your ability.
Fitness
Whilst we will not be walking large distances every day it will help to have a good general level of fitness. There are no very long hikes but the terrain is rough and boggy and there are some locations that require a 30-45 minute walk from the car over undulating ground. Having said that there are other locations that require less effort and are much closer to the car park.
What to bring
You will need your camera, a selection of lenses preferably a wide angle and a telephoto, a tripod, memory cards and space batteries. If you have filters please bring them. If you don’t you are welcome to borrow some for the session. It will also be advantageous to bring a laptop if you have one. This will allow you to take advantage of some post processing tuition.
You will also need some good outdoor clothing, a waterproof coat, waterproof over trousers and some good walking boots.
If you would like to discuss any aspect of this workshop before booking then please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
