SUMMARY:Improving / Advanced Workshop 17-11-26
DESCRIPTION:Improving/Advanced Workshop \nLocation: Glasgow \nThis workshop is designed for people who have knowledge of photography and know how to do the basics of wildlife photography. It is also intended for people that have a good understanding of their cameras and are already taking good images\, but want to take their photography to a higher level. \nThroughout the workshop we will look at and discuss what makes a good image. We will talk about the basics of composition but when we should look to do something different\, we will also look at how we can use the environment to add impact to our images and how backgrounds can make or break an image. We will spend a lot of time looking at different types and angles of light and how to maximise the lighting conditions that we have to truly change the way an image can look. \nWe will also look for specific behaviours and will focus on capturing action shots of the birds in flight and interacting with each other. I will be on hand to explain basic behaviour of our subjects and the signs that you need to look for to capture dramatic behaviour shots. \nWe will also focus on wildlife portraits and how to take snapshots of birds to the next level. \nThe focus of the workshop is on capturing images of common species in a different way\, so we will be photographing swans\, ducks and other water birds. \nThe great thing about this location is that there are numerous different subjects that we can get quite close to and it gives us lots of opportunities to try different things and experiment. The light at this location is also very good. \nBy the end of this workshop you will have a better idea of how a few small tweaks can completely transform your wildlife photography. \nCourse Contents\n• What makes a good image\n• Mastering the Angles of Light\n• Photographing behaviour\n• Photographing Portraits\n• Slow Shutter Speeds\n• Mastering Settings

SUMMARY:Isle of Mull - Otter Workshop 21-11-26
DESCRIPTION:Isle of Mull – Otter Workshop \nLocation: Isle of Mull \nThis is a 4 day workshop to give you the best opportunity to photograph otters. \nThe Isle of Mull has a very healthy population of Otters yet they can be both elusive and frustrating. Sightings can never be guaranteed\, and many frustrating hours can be spent walking or driving and searching the coastline. \nOtters are mythical creatures and many people have never seen an Otter. However\, they have often seen their signs\, i.e. their spraint or droppings. Here on Mull\, the otter hunts during the day and they are more governed by the state of the tide\, than whether it is morning or night. Otters are only occasionally seen in fresh water here\, and it is just offshore near seaweed covered rocks where you will most likely see one. \nThey find their prey mostly in the sea\, but they are not sea otters\, a different species found on the Pacific coast. The Mull otter is the Eurasian otter\, Lutra lutra\, a member of the Mustelid family which also includes Badgers\, Mink and Pine Marten. The Eurasian Otter is the only species of otter in the UK\, occupying sea\, rivers and lakes across the country. An adult otter will be about 1-1.2 metres long from tip of the nose to end of the tail. \nWhen the sea is calm\, it may be easier to spot an otter swimming on the surface while fishing. However wild the weather\, otters must try to look for food\, so otters can be seen in all weathers at all times of the day. \nThis workshop is designed to give you the best opportunity to photograph otters. Nothing is guaranteed\, but we will search for them in the best locations. You will be given advice on the correct fieldcraft to use\, what signs to look for and the best settings to capture some incredible otter images\, \nMull also has a wealth of other wildlife and away from the otters we will attempt to find White Tailed Eagle\, Golden Eagle\, Hen Harrier\, Short eared Owl and Red Deer. \nThe Schedule Will be as follows:\nDay 1: Arrival (approx. 1pm)– Afternoon/Evening Otters\nDay 2: Full Day Otters\nDay 3: Full Day Otters\nDay 4: Departure (approx. 1pm) – Early morning Otters \nThe price includes all transport whilst on the Isle of Mull and all photographic guiding. \nThe price does not include accommodation. \nIt also excludes all meals.
