Landscape Photography Workshop
In: Landscapes
I had the opportunity of going on a Guy Edwardes (professional nature and landscape photographer) landscape photography workshop, and what a great opportunity it was!
I opted for the afternoon to sunset workshop above the early morning workshop, mainly because I couldn’t see myself getting out of bed for 5.30am!
At 7.30 am the area was covered in thick fog. By lunchtime it was starting to clear so I was hoping for some blue sky and clouds. I wasn’t disappointed.
Four fabulous Dorset locations were visited with four very different conditions and four different tutorials in landscape photography techniques were given.
A huge number techniques, ideas, advice and guidance was given throughout the session; from lens choice, to front to back sharpness, manual focus, use of live view, mirror lock up, use of a polarising filter, and care of equipment.
Sunset and post-sunset was spent waving a hugely powerful torch around a 12th Century Norman church, situated at the centre of a Neolithic ritual henge! Rumour has it, it is haunted too!
Location 2: Late afternoon, Kimmeridge. Exercise using wide angle lens with camera a foot off of the ground and 2 foot away from the foreground rock, use of depth of field, live view and polarising filter. Love the reflection! There was even time for a spot of cloud watching!
