Event info
Join professional landscape photographer, Mark Banks, on this five-day (six-night) residential workshop in one of the most beautiful and varied landscapes in the UK.
Tickets are now on sale. Bookings can be made direct with the RPS by phoning 0117 3164 464, or emailing info@rps.org with details of your booking request and a member of the booking team will get back to you regarding payment.

Based along the shores of Gairloch in the Scottish Highlands, the group will visit a variety of photogenic locations such as the beaches of Udrigle, Poolewe and Achnasheen to the north and along the shores of Loch Maree and surrounding woodland to the east.
Autumn colour will be spectacular at this time of year! The highlight of this trip is photographing the famous Torridon mountain range such as Beinn Eighe, Sgurr Dubh and Liathach as well as the stunning vistas on offer around Upper Loch Torridon.
Transport from and to the hotel is provided each day.
Exertion level is classed as ‘Easy to Moderate’ and each location is carefully selected for its fine views and easy access.

This workshop is unsuitable for wheelchair users due to the terrain.

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 postponed or cancelled for this or another reason beyond the RPS’s control. If an event is postponed we will transfer your booking to the rearranged event, with the option of a refund if the rescheduled date is not suitable for you.
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.
