Surprisingly, woodland tends to be ignored by many photographers in the summer months. Yet, with a bit of creative understanding and an eye for composition, a summer woodland can offer amazing photographic opportunities! Join Mark for a full day of photography in a wonderful woodland close to Masham on the eastern edge of the Yorkshire Dales.

 

 

Mark will be on hand throughout the day to give you advice, tips and tricks on how to make the most of shooting in woodland. Mark will demonstrate techniques which to include...

  • Finding good compositions

  • Choosing techniques appropriate for the prevailing weather

  • High-key mono

  • Moody low-key mono

  • Intentional Camera Movement (ICM)

  • Woodland Abstracts and more...page2image21624128 page2image21624320

  • At each location, you will have plenty of time to try the techniques demonstrated with help from Mark. This 1-day workshop will suit landscape photographers from beginner to advanced.

Mark will send full joining instructions around two weeks prior to the event.

 

Due to the undulating terrain that is typical of woodland, this workshop is not suitable for wheelchair users or those with poor balance or limited mobility. There are no steep inclines and all areas have been assessed for safety.

Please bring a packed lunch and drink to last the day as there are no cafes nearby.

 

 

Please wear clothing suitable for photography at this time of year. Sturdy walking boots or wellingtons would be ideal for this terrain.

A camera, charged batteries and lenses that cover a focal range between 25mm to 100mm will be required.

 There is a lot of free roadside parking available at the location.

 

 

Ticket prices for this event include a £2 carbon offsetting charge.  For more information click here.

Cancellation policy

Cancellation by You

If you wish to cancel your booking PLEASE let the event leader / organiser know with as much notice as possible. If nothing else, this can avoid them delaying the start of the event while they wait for you.

If you have paid for an event, please note that this fee/ticket price is non-refundable unless we are able to sell your place to somebody else. You are welcome to sell your place yourself but, again, PLEASE notify the event leader / organiser in advance of any change.

Cancellation by us

Event leaders are asked to make plans for alternative activities or locations in the case of poor weather and, in most cases, events will proceed despite poor weather unless, in the view of the event leader, the weather will lead to unacceptable safety risks or very little chance of successful photography. It is inevitable, however, that occasionally an event will be cancelled for this or another reason beyond the RPS’s control.

Occasionally an event may also be cancelled owing to lack of bookings. So if you wish to attend an event, don’t leave it till the last minute to book as it may be too late.

If an event is cancelled we will give you as much notice as we are able and any payment by you to the RPS in respect of the event offered as a full refund. In the case of events cancelled because of lack of interest we will aim to give at least three weeks’ notice wherever possible.

Please note we are NOT able to refund any associated or consequential costs including but not limited to travel, accommodation, insurance premium or other costs incurred by you in order to attend the event.
