Maybe not the best skies for Photographing Castles, but the early start for sunrise on Bamburgh Beach, Lindisfarne and then on to Cocklawburn made the day go really quickly and very enjoyable. The added bonus of night time Fire Spinning was a brilliant addition to the day.

I had a fantastic day, despite the early inclement weather. Neil and Ricci were always on hand with advice, suggestions and technical skills. I learned and laughed with a great group of people.
REVIEWER: Jonathan E.
This was a well organised course. Neil and Ricci used their knowledge of the area and Nikon equipment to help everyone get the best out of the course. Every opportunity was taken to try and make the most of the location, lighting and environment. They maintained a great atmosphere and everyone felt included. Recommended.

A well organised course with the variable weather it was great to have Neil who knows the area like the back of his hand so able to adapt on the fly I was there for a fabulous three days highly recommended

Attended the Nikon School Adventures – Best of Northumberland with Neil & Ricci on 24th Oct. Despite Storm Benjamin cutting the shoot short, we still captured great seascapes around Bamburgh Castle & Rumbling Kern. The afternoon Q&A/editing session was packed with tips. Fantastic learning day — can’t wait for the next one!
REVIEWER: STEVE G.
Storm Benjamin hit so the weather was less than brilliant! But the instructors did a great job of guiding us round the outside of it and we got some very moody shots. The evening fire spinning the night before was great fun, but there was no chance of any astro work due to the complete cloud cover.
REVIEWER: Simon T.
Great job managing the weather conditions to find a few good opportunities for pictures. Both Ricci and Neil were excellent for help with composition and technical aspects of photography. Nice group, too!
REVIEWER: Jan-Peter O.
Absolutely amazing. I would recommend booking more than one day. Weather can’t always be guaranteed but these guys know how to make the most for your experience.
Equipment knowledge, knowledge from fully professional photographers, location for the shots and more.
The course was great, exceptional tuition. More said, these courses always have a great group of folks. It’s an enjoyable and friendly day/days time to go shooting
REVIEWER: Dean M.
Plenty of opportunities to make images of the three species of deer at Studley. Neil was an expert guide and leader as well as sharing his extensive knowledge of Nikon equipment and photographic techniques. All in all a fun day resulting in some fantastic “keepers”.
REVIEWER: Nigel W.
A very special evening around 3 steam locomotives with lighting, smoke and re-enactors setting the scene. Plenty of space and time with just a small number of other photographers. Wonderful photos achieved in an otherwise inaccessible location and opportunity. Nikon Trainer on hand, gave expert advice and opportunities to create stunning images, adding confidence to all skill levels and Watercress Railway Staff enacted and advised on the Locos too.
