Glencoe Residential Workshop Sun 27th Nov to 1st Dec 2022
A four day (four night) residential workshop staying at the wonderful Kingshouse Hotel based on single room occupancy with Bed and Breakfast. The Kingshouse Hotel is based in a wonderful location in the heart of the mountains in the Pass of Glencoe which is ideal for visiting all the locations easily. During the workshop we will explore the grandeur that is Glencoe including the majestic Stob Dearg and Buachaille Etive Mor, Blackrock Cottage, The Three Sisters, Loch Achtriochtan, Glen Etive and Black Mount. We will also travel a little further afield to photograph Kilchurn Castle and Castle Stalker, Glenfinnan Viaduct and the abandoned boat at Corpach.
We will meet on Sunday afternoon to hopefully catch a sunset and the workshop will finish at Thursday lunchtime. As well as being guided, with a fantastic ratio of up to 5 clients to one workshop leader, you can also rest assured that you will be able to spend lots of time working on a one to one basis to not only capture some fantastic images, but more importantly to further your skills. Whether you are a beginner who needs to learn some of the more technical aspects of exposure, depth of field and filters, or a more advanced photographer who wants to really hone their compositional skills, your needs will be catered for. There is the possibility of shared cost return transport from Preston, Lancashire (limited to two clients). The workshop fee includes single occupancy quality hotel accommodation including cooked breakfast, full tuition during the day and post processing sessions in the evening. Technical skills including the use of filters for dramatic effect will be explored. This will cover neutral density filters to slow the shutter speed creating atmospheric water movement, graduated neutral density filters to balance the exposure between the land and sky, and extreme ‘big stopper’ filters to create wonderful movement in the clouds and water. Technical aspects will be explored including achieving accurate exposure using the manual setting of the camera along with making creative decisions regarding aperture and depth of field.
There really is no better way to develop your craft than by ‘getting out there and doing it’. I will provide you with a friendly, fun and informative workshop experience that will, I am sure, leave you with some memorable images to add to your portfolio. Partners who do not wish to participate in the photography tuition are welcome at a reduced rate. Complete the online Booking Form to reserve your place.
