The day will start with the very basics of camera set ups, exposure and focus modes. There will be plenty of time to ask questions and ho through your camera and how it works.
We will spend the morning focusing on Red Squirrels, the objective here will be to use the available light to capture interesting portraits and behaviour. We will also be hoping to capture images of the many woodland birds that frequent the hide.
Set in secluded woodland, this specialist 1-6-person hide gives close-up and intimate views of red squirrels and a spectacular array of woodland birds (including greater spotted woodpecker, nuthatch, long tailed tits and more.)
As with all my workshops I will be on hand to give advice on settings and various different shots that can be achieved. The group will be a maximum of 5 people so there will be plenty of opportunities to work with everyone one on one if required.
By the end of the morning session you will be fully confident in the use of your camera and changing settings to create the type of images that you want.
Please note that the day includes the cost of the hide booking.
