DSLR Focusing Masterclass

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Mastering: DSLR Focusing

Having used AF-S for years no matter what I was photographing, I wanted to really get to grips with all the different focusing options available on the newest DSLR's, particularly photographing moving objects. Ricci was excellent at explaining all the different focusing options available, how to fully utilise each and the best uses for each, and was extremely knowledgable with an in-depth understanding of how each focusing option worked. He explained in an easy to understand succinct way.

COURSE: Mastering Z 6II & Z 7II Part 1

The Z6II course run by Ricci covers everything you might ever want to know about the camera and the intricacies of its features and menu. Ricci is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all the questions raised by the attendees in a clear, understandable and concise way. Very worthwhile doing.

Mastering the Z6 11 & z7 11 Part 1 & 2

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Mastering Z 6II & Z 7II Part 1

I am returning to photography following a stroke which left me unable to lift my original camera, (a D800) after sometime with a compact camera I now have a z7 11 which is half the weight of my previous camera. It’s good to be back! The course introduced me to this more advanced camera and has given me confidence in what I am already doing, it showed me that I am on the right track.

Stunning Stainforth

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Experience Day: Landscapes - Yorkshire Dales

A terrific day in the Yorkshire Dales thanks to Neil's intimate knowledge of the area. Waterfalls, Lone trees, Lime Kilns and a Barn in the hills it was a really great day out capped off by a sunset shoot when Neil stayed beyond the allotted time to ensure everyone got the best from their images.

Nikon D500

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Mastering the D500

I swapped my ageing D7000 for the D500 and was a bit overwhelmed by the additional features. This training gave me all the information that I wanted and I would recommend this to novices and experienced photographers.

Ribblehead Area

RATING: 5 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Experience Day: Landscapes - Ribblehead

A very tricky day all round as we had constant heavy rain, the worst I have experienced for some time but we had a good day despite this due to Neil's knowledge of the area and his helpful weather apps. Neil took us to 'Hoffman Kiln' where we were under cover and organised some light painting images as well as normal exposures. We managed to visit a number of locations despite the weather including Scaleber Force which provided some welcome cover from the worst of the weather.

A great confidence-building day

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Nikon School Adventures - Northumberland Castles and Ruins

This was my second consecutive day's workshop so an excellent chance to concentrate on putting into practice everything that had been thrown at me during a challenging first day. Neil and Ricci are great tutors, knowing exactly when to instruct / advise and when to back off and leave you to it for a while. I left with far more confidence in my photography, especially using a tripod and filters.

Challenging at times but ultimately very useful

RATING: 4.8 of 5
DATE: OCTOBER 2021

COURSE: Nikon School Adventures - Northumberland Coastlines

As my first proper full day photoshoot, using filters for the first time and in rare (for me) coastal locations it is not surprising that I found this first day of two to be challenging at times, especially as I was still not fully familiar with my relatively new Z7II and a reluctant tripod user. However, with Neil and Ricci's patient guiding I ended the day with far more confidence on many aspects, including how to manage my gear faced with the twin perils of sand and seawater!
