Visions of Britain - Photographic Workshops in Southwest England

Two of my favourite landscape photographers, Jon Gibs and Adam Burton have got together to create a new company - Visions of Britain. They are specialising in photographic workshop breaks in the South West of England.

The workshops are dedicated to landscape photographers and take place in a wide range of spectacular locations throughout Cornwall, Devon and Somerset.

These two brilliant photographers will guide and assist you to photograph the rugged coastlines of North Cornwall and South Devon, as well as the beautiful Exmoor and rugged Dartmoor National Parks.

Norfolk Landscape Photography Workshops

Two good friends of mine: Kate Barclay and John Duckett - both of whom are members of The Painting With Light Society and are excellent photographers in their own right, have started offering Landscape Photography Workshops in the photogenic county of Norfolk (England).

They have only just been announced, yet places are being taken quickly. So, as they say, book early to avoid disappointment. The currently available courses are:

Workshop One - Saturday March 29th - The working Norfolk Coast.
This workshop starts at dawn and takes in the Quay and beach at Wells-next-the-Sea. After a cooked breakfast/brunch it's then onto the boats, lobster pots and sheds of Brancaster Staithe.

Workshop Two - Saturday April 26th - The Norfolk Broads and Dunes.
Again starting with the mills on the river Thurne at dawn and finish the day on the dunes at Horsey Gap.

Workshop Three - Saturday 1st November - The Norfolk Broads and Dunes.
Again starting with the mills on the river Thurne at dawn and finish the day on the dunes at Horsey Gap.

Workshop Four - Saturday 8th November - Location to be confirmed.

All workshops have a maximum of 8 people and will be tailored to your level of experience and skill. The workshops cover basic through to advanced use of digital and film based cameras. Advice will be given in metering, creative use of shutter speeds and apertures, choices of focal length, creative compositions, when and what filters to use.
