Join our Nikon School for an exciting Landscape and Astro photography workshop (weather permitting). Staying on location we will be exploring some of the most spectacular landscapes around North Devon whilst teaching you how to shoot great landscape and Astro images.
Working in a small group we will spend the days visiting the stunning locations to be found in North Devon and the surrounding areas. Neil and Ricci will be on hand to guide you through the correct camera settings and composition setups to make the most of the beautiful surroundings. We will be covering techniques such as long exposures, using filters, image composition and focusing techniques to ensure you get pin sharp images.
In the evenings, we will also (weather permitting) shoot Astro images of the milky way as the galactic core rises above the horizon
We have exclusive access to a lovely boutique hotel for the duration of this workshop which will be a great opportunity to meet other like minded photographers and enjoy a dinner and drink together in the evening.

The course was a great way to restart photography after lockdown. The weather didn't quite play ball but we still got the landscapes and night sky shots. Neil & Ricci were always around to share their expertise and guidance with the delegates. The Smugglers Rest was a great place to unwind after a long day & night out. I highly recommend this course.
