WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY MASTERCLASS

This advanced course covers techniques for photographing mammal and bird behaviour and life cycle, to make our pictures more interesting and engaging for the viewer. In the afternoon we will cover macro and close-up photography techniques for insects and other invertebrates, plants and fungi. We will look at getting creative with wildlife images and what makes a really good wildlife picture stand out?

INTRODUCTION TO WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY

For those starting out in wildlife photography, this course will show you how to photograph an incredible variety of birds and mammals throughout the British Isles. We will look at equipment, techniques and locations to find charismatic species and make striking images. The course will build an appreciation of what makes a good wildlife photograph and how to bring all the right elements together.

The morning will concentrate on fundamental techniques such as composition, focus, light, exposure and how to get close to the subject. In the afternoon we will look at where to find wildlife, both close to home and further afield.  Participants will be encouraged to photograph birds in their gardens and at wetlands near their homes (suggestions will be provided). We will also consider the ethics and legal aspects of wildlife photography; what should we be prepared to do and not do to get a picture?
