Landscapes and seascapes
The Firth of Forth is a stunning and diverse location for photography. During this full-day session, we will travel across both the North and South banks of the River Forth to capture some amazing locations, from characterful old jetties to the Forth Bridges, from the smallest port in Scotland to hidden bays. This is designed for people who know the basics of their camera and want to learn how to take stunning landscape and seascapes images whilst discovering the beautiful scenery around the Forth estuary.
Attendees of the session will learn how to create stunning images in-camera through the use of filters and more advanced composition techniques. The full-day session commences from first light and will last until sunset, so there are many opportunities to practice your skills. During the day, we will also spend some time looking at how we can use editing software to enhance your images.
The workshop will have a minimum of two and a maximum of six attendees to ensure that everyone receives individual attention from a professional photographer.
