Capture the timeless villages and beautiful landscapes of the Cotswolds
One Day Workshop
This one-day workshop has been designed to help you improve your photography by developing your creative eye; taking into account composition, working with the available light and the use of filters. I will also help you gain a better understanding of your camera and its capabilities to enable you to get the best results so we’ll be covering depth of field, focusing, metering and use of the histogram.
Charming Villages
The Cotswolds is full of pretty villages but perhaps two of the loveliest are Snowshill and Lower Slaughter. We’ll be photographing both of these, plus we’ll be visiting Broadway Tower, an 18th century folly, located at one of the highest points in the Cotswolds.
Something for everyone
Regardless of whether you recently picked up a camera for the first time, or have been shooting for years, this is designed to be an enjoyable and beneficial days’ shooting. You will have the chance to create a number of images with constructive advice. If you are new to filters, there will also be the opportunity try a selection of Kase Filters on the day.

I will give you both practical and technical advice, as well as individual guidance and hands on demonstrations in the field. Over the course of the day, we will look at the impact of light on the scene, composition techniques, and well as the use of filters.
