LOVE TREES AND PLANTS? WANT TO IMPROVE YOUR NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY SKILLS? THEN JOIN SHEFFIELD PHOTOGRAPHER FRAN HALSALL FOR A HALF-DAY WORKSHOP IN THE WILDLIFE TRUST'S MOSS VALLEY WOODLANDS. The focus of this workshop will be documenting veteran oak and beech trees, and creating portraits of the bluebells, anemones and sweet woodruff that characterise these ancient woodlandsThe session will cover: getting the most out of your camera equipment; matching the lighting conditions to the subject; and how to produce eye-catching compositions. All of which will be supported by the expert botanical and seasonal knowledge of your host. All types of camera are welcome, although some of the workshop will be devoted to using SLRs. It is expected that you will have at least some knowledge of how your camera works – please contact me prior to booking if you need advice on this matter. Regardless of your ability, please bring the camera's instruction manual with you. If you have them, please bring tripods and filters. Although tripods can be cumbersome, using them opens up a world of possibilities that are not available with hand-held photography. A spare tripod will be available to try out if you wish to do so – please let me know. The cost is £30 per person and includes a set of digital notes to download upon completion of the course. Each workshop is limited to a maximum of eight participants and lasts for four hours. FAQS ARE THERE ID OR MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENTS TO ENTER THE EVENT? For over 18s only.
