Description Constable country is beautiful all year but it can be at it’s most dramatic in winter when the otherwise stark landscape is coated in a crisp wintry frost. On this workshop we will photograph two or three locations in the Dedham Vale area of outstanding natural beauty.

An understanding of the basics will be useful but this course is suitable for photographers of all levels, anyone looking to improve their landscape photography and enjoy a day out and hopefully a few laughs, with a small group of like-minded people. I pride myself on providing plenty of personal tuition during my workshops, so numbers are limited to 5 participants to enable me to spend time with everyone.

On this workshop we will look at all aspects of landscape photography, including composition, exposure settings, focusing, using live view, using filters and anything else that comes up. My workshops are supported by LEE filters who have kindly supplied complete sets of filters for those who do not have them to use on the day and I will be on hand to offer expert advice on how, when and why to use them. As a LEE Filters ambassador, I can also give individual advice on choosing filters, as well as a discount code, to anyone who needs it.
